“…a black, hilarious exploration of deceit, paranoia and murderous desire, as the spirit of the the Blues lands in leafy suburbia.”

Jez Butterworth’s  plays include Jerusalem, the award-winning Mojo, The Night Heron and The Winterling which all premiered at the Royal Court Theatre. Long time collaborator and former Artistic Director of the Royal Court Theatre Ian Rickson directed.

Ian Rickson’s beautifully precise production and Jeremy Herbert’s transparent design also evoke a world in which diurnal routine is always in danger of descending into chaos. Guardian review
