PLAYS TO SEE
Tim Hochstrasser
“The switchback of passionate love, anger, regret, self-hatred and loss of self-respect is presented with gruesome plausibility”
“It is a fine directorial touch by Eleanor Burke to make ‘Elle’ pregnant, thus giving us and the performer a ready means to understand the extent and fierceness of her desperation, even from the outset of the call.”
★★★★
THE STAGE
Edward Bhesania
“Utterly commanding”
“It all leads to a climax in which the pain of loss is overlaid with that of contractions. Is this a loss and a birth, or a double loss?”
