“To take pain and make something beautiful from it is extraordinary enough, but ‘COLD’ goes even further than that. It is theatrically ingenious, bold and arresting, and unflinchingly addresses what might be the most defining and universal of all human experiences - loss.” - GARETH MCLEAN, JOURNALIST - GUARDIAN, RADIO TIMES (Cold)

“dark, delirious and magical”  HEREFORD TIMES (The Disappearing Act)

“the script covers much ground with admirable brevity. The heat and dust are brilliantly evoked in Claire Coaché’s production which creeps up on you with cunning stealth." THE TIMES (Scorched)

“striking theatrical invention” The Stage (Scorched)
