'A well-honed play with knock-out one-liners ... as tales of torture and treachery unfold, the black comedy never misses' ~ Time Out
'A gobsmacking verve that is sadly rare in today's British theatre ... written with all of Butterworth's characteristically high-octane flair, the text flashes with jokes, shines with images and oozes menacing bonhomie ... it really rocks' ~ Aleks Sierz, Tribune
