“There is a very intimate feel about the production, with what looks like a dark slagheap, with a cave opening at the back of the stage, and various actors running from and to the stage amid the audience.”

“The play is infused with a Greek-tragic atmosphere by Turkish director Serdar Bilis, emphasised by choreographer Steven Hoggett, who makes one fluid, nightmarish intervention. The action unfolds on a single, scorched-earth set, suggestive of blackened souls and of the bombed-out graveyard where Frank sleeps his unquiet sleep. Interweaving of Christian and classical symbols gives the play a mythic resonance, the grand guignol conclusion to which it tends is as overblown as it is revealing.”
