'Provocative, genuine and moving'
'Ella Fowler's simple set design - a bed, chest of drawers and a chair - successfully conveys the claustrophobic atmosphere required by the text, and is used to great effect by the performers. Imaginative staging transforms bed into bath, chair into toilet and so on, allowing the action to move location while still remaining firmly rooted in the couple's bedroom. It is a physical representation of the work's commitment to exploring the everyday effects of an eating disorder on all those involved.'
