'Exquisitely sad and witty.. [it will] wring your heart while scaring the mortal stuffing out of you'

-- Ben Brantley * New York Times *

'Extraordinary… sets new standards in atmospheric scariness… takes you to the edge of human experience with eye-opening candour, beauty and ingenuity'

* WhatsOnStage *

'Astonishing... at once beautifully intimate and bedazzingly epic'

* Time Out *

'Exquisitely beautiful and heartbreakingly sad… so painfully tender that, as you watch the show, it feels as if layers of your skin are gradually being flayed from your body'

* Guardian *

'Remarkable… gratifyingly scary… dark and striking'

* Telegraph *

'Moving and haunting... a rich and beautiful theatrical experience that is by turns gripping and tender'

* Herald *

'A chilling and moving piece of theatre, full of pain, terror and unexpected moments of comedy'

* Scotsman *
