REVIEWS
The Guardian ★★★★
"This lesser-known darkly compelling work is given a smart production that fizzes with contemporary relevance and puts female voices to the fore"
The Stage ★★★★
"Clever and thought provoking"
The Independent
"As pacy as a netflix thriller... Director Mathilda du Tillieul McNicol trades togas and spears for TV-realism and anonymous 21st century rooms of power"
​
The Arts Desk ★★★★
"Mathilda du Tillieul McNicol and an impressive young cast lend it pace, focus and dramatic flair, along with that timely political edge"
​
The Stage ★★★★
"Seriously involving"
​
Music OMH ★★★★
"An innovative and interesting take on Puccini's classic... La boheme, on a small-scale, but with a big heart"
