Critic reviews
Tatty Hennessy has very creatively taken an already compelling story, and crafted it in to an even more suspenseful tale, with young people and the challenges they face at its heart
I occasionally shivered, but I never quite cared enough
Layered and perceptive take on the dangers of today's world
Creepy new play based on a true crime story
Asks big and exciting questions but ultimately loses momentum and tension
Writer Tatty Hennessy has a quick wit and cuts the normal with a comedic edge
As a comedy about girls on the verge of becoming young women there is a lot to like in this play but as something to give the audience chills this is sadly a disappointment
