This show is simply extraordinary. You come away shaken and uncertain, there is such beauty in this brutality and without spoiling the fantastic plot you are left with split loyalties that change throughout the production.Subtle and elegant direction and writing delivered flawlessly by a stand out cast. Truly one of the best things I have seen for ages. I am ashamed to say that I picked on someone in school (many, many years ago) who had "learning difficulties" and to see that performance and watching him suffer at the hands of these boys was absolutely chilling the innocence and childlike qualities radiate through his performance making him compelling viewing. As were the rest of the cast, you truly thought that it could explode at any minute. I implore you to go!
