Media Reviews
'Not for the faint hearted, but essential to anyone who wants to consider what crimes may be being committed in the name of 'security.' Oxford Times 'A richly imaginative, darkly witty and at times unsettling experience.' - Exeunt 'A surreal, disquieting interrogation.' - Stage'Playwright Nick Gill has created a clever allegory in which a nursery becomes a concentration camp and pot plants are transformed into silent prisoners.' - Everything Theatre 'An intriguing proposition, a riddle to solve with echoes of Harold Pinter's 'The Hothouse'. ' - Time Out
