“A robust, uplifting piece of theatre that feeds the mind and strokes the soul. One can only hope this production tours widely and well.“
Australian Stage, Simon Piening

“Cristabel Sved’S production of Roland Schimmelpfennig’s play in 51 fragmented scenes is a marvellous piece of work: crisply realised and clear, spacious and intelligent. The actors…take on 30 roles over the 110 minutes continuous, rolling action and are equally terrific.”
StageNoise, Diana Simmonds
