AMYGDALA Reviews

"Fiercely compelling...Geraldine Alexander's first play is a must see. Meaty, articulate and well-informed writing; coupled with stylish, subtle and fluid direction." UK Theatre Web

"It's the acting that's really scintillating... Here's hoping that theatregoers see more of Lanipekun, who is both magnetic and mercurial" The Times

"Strong performances from Hermione Gulliford and Alex Lanipekun. Forceful, bone-shaking writing... it packs quite a wallop" Time Out

 

DEATHWATCH Reviews

**** “Both beautiful and horrifying to watch… intense and utterly captivating” “Expertly translated by David Rudkin and vividly directed by Geraldine Alexander. Set in a prison cell, it makes for a clammily powerful 75 minutes” The Guardian

**** “In Geraldine Alexander’s taut and brilliantly acted production, the intense claustrophobia and the torments that three confined people inflict on one another are horribly compelling” Whats On Stage
