London Evening Standard
"Without ever adopting a superior moral stance, Newson has constructed a forceful plea for humanity in a dehumanising world."
Hampstead & Highgate Express
"The performances are sensational in their commitment and willingness to take every physical risk."
The Guardian
"I would go a long way to see this brave piece again."
The Independent
"This piece of dance, or theatre, is the most shocking and frightening I have ever seen. It chilled me, and appalled me. It should be made compulsory viewing for everyone."
Event (South West)
"It is perverse, but justified because it rings

The Observer
"If it sounds shocking, it is."
The Guardian
