STUNNINGLY GRIPPING PRODUCTION!

The play was absolutely brilliant. A thrilling plot which was suspenseful and had a great dynamic; enticing the audience. The professional and talented cast portrayed powerful emotions, leaving us shocked and empathetic towards to the characters. Despite it being the first ever preview show, it was a well played out production. The revolving stage allowed for different settings and was very clever. Laurence Fox and Jack Huston who played the two main characters upheld a strong chemistry throughout which showed them to be very believable characters. Overall, the play was wonderful and we can't wait to see it again. We will definitely be recommending it.

IGNORE THE BAD REVIEWS. THIS SHOW IS GREAT.

Ignore the reviews below, this show was brilliant. Unlike an in your face musical or over the top pantomime you have to let yourself immerse in the show and credit must go to the main actor Jack Huston who's performance was simply outstanding. The scenery was incredible.. changing so quickly with just one rotation of the set and yes there may have been a bit of banging but as the show is only two performances in you must have a little lee-way for the cast and crew. We loved it and walked away in awe at what we have just seen. Think Woman in Black plus a little more. It's great, it really is.

I THOUGHT MURDER WAS AGAINST THE LAW

In the case of this play its pretty addictive, raw, dark viewing.Saw this Sat 30th Nov and am still coming out the other side of the emotional wringer. Set was magnificent, capturing both the sense of impending menace and psychological hopelessness as well as the era. Acting was top class, character portrayals entirely believable and appropriate. I could hear very word and sense every twinge of emotional turmoil from the male leads. Congratulations to the cast and crew. Have already made a return booking.

EXCELLENT PRODUCTION

A gripping thriller with excellent actors and impressive stage sets. Altogether a very enjoyable evening. Would definitely recommend. I was in the stalls (row D) where I could see and hear perfectly.
