“Working in the darkness was amazing and I loved every second of it. ”
“It was an absolute pleasure working with you....Every technique and note you’ve given me will be remembered.”

The concept was inspired by tenebrism and ciaroscuro. A study in theatrical darkness.
“The performances were confident: the actors navigated some complex emotional states and modes of embodiment as well as the increasing momentum of ‘beats’ in the text. There were moments of humour and wit, and moments of intimacy, risk, and predatory danger: your actors deserve credit for their intensive work on the script, as do you for your clear estimation of dramaturgical through-lines, relationships, and intentions that were generally well marked by the actors in each scene.”
“Thank you for being such a wonderful and caring director. You made an intense process an absolute delight. ”
