...Braham Murray's vigorous, athletic production is excellent.
The Sunday Times

...a virtuosic production by Braham Murray...David Short's design,...cleverly converts the Royal Exchange into a forest camp. Braham Murray's production deploys rings of fire, blood-red lighting and the noise of circumambient battle to exciting effect. There is a dominant performance from Rade Serbedzija as an itinerant actor...and strong ones from Sorcha Cusack as a pacific visionary and Steven Hartley as her hate-filled opponent.
