'Seamy and superb.. irresistible'

* Guardian *

'Summons up a timeless realm rooted in primeval myth... lots of deft touches'

* The Times *

'Dazzling'

* WhatsOnStage *

'A wily adaptation [that] hints at scathing insecurity bubbling beneath Oedipus's calm demeanour... Hickson's version is closely knitted to the intricacies of the original but subtly recalibrates emotions'

* Broadway World *

'Powerful and captivating... Ella Hickson's writing impresses throughout'

* All That Dazzles *

Ella Hickson's other plays include Swive [Elizabeth], ANNA, The Writer, Oil, Wendy & Peter Pan and Boys.
