Recenzii

'Lost love echoes mournfully through the gleeful grotesquerie... This play touches on the melancholy at the heart of human existence, and on art's role as both its expression and as palliative... Neilson holds up a fairground mirror that reveals the sadness and ugliness, the unlovely, fearful inner self that each of us struggles to keep hidden... It's uncannily hard to look away.' Sam Marlowe, The Times, 6.3.09 'Imagine Shockheaded Peter crossed with a Carry On film, and you have something of the flavour of this 90-minute show, which veers wildly between vomit jokes and something much more bruised in its examination of the imagination, the human heart and the role of theatre itself.' Lyn Gardner, Guardian, 6.3.09 'This makes for an enthralling Russian doll of a play, which...gradually unravels a delicious concoction of artifice and truth.' Neil Cooper, Herald, 19.3.09 'There is a real undercurrent of sadness. We're reminded of the loneliness of the travelling performer, how theatre is based on artifice... A show about the power of the imagination - it laughts in the teeth of death.' Liz Hoggard, Evening Standard, 2.4.09 'Neilson's fantasies are unforgettable.' Kate Bassett, Independent on Sunday, 5.4.09
