Reviews.

  • “It’s the kind of work that existed in the late-20th century behind the Iron Curtain, theatre which is about nothing and everything all at once.”

    ★★★★ - The Stage

  • “Over a fragmented but immensely vivid hour, they conjure up a series of impressionistic images of a generation of Hong Kong people oppressed by an increasingly authoritarian rule”

    ★★★★ - The Scotsman

  • "A real lesson in how to frame a piece of work, how to create an immediate context and mood that colours the rest of the show.”

    ★★★★ - Fest Mag

  • "The show’s use of the allegorical veil is a masterstroke, sharpening the focus without blunting the pain."

    ★★★★ - The Guardian

  • “The vignettes are surreal, tense, and abstract… A vital and groundbreaking piece of work.”

    ★★★★ - The Skinny

  • "Max Percy’s direction has performers hurtling through gear-shifts with precision, ensuring this enormous topic fits into a production that’s sharply-formed and dripping in symbolism."

    ★★★★ - Three Weeks

  • "Breathtaking and claustrophobic, where even the moments of supposed levity are fraught."

    ★★★★★ - Scottish Field
