"The minimalist set design, with its stark and haunting visuals, effectively captures the eerie atmosphere of the story."

Fairy Powered Productions

"(...)ingeniously create illusions of depth and expansive space that emphasise desolate isolation using simple platforms. Sporadically broken panes of glass trellised behind an undulating curtain provide a suitably eerie interface between the ghostly influence outside and the growing chaos between the characters on the inside." 

"The stage itself felt like another actor in the show."
