A play by Vaclav Havel (Translation by Katerina Ivak)

“the subtly dazzling tinkering about with words, time, circumstance and situation…was so engrossing, so stimulating, so thoroughly entertaining at several levels, that one wished it would go on and on” _{The Sunday Independent, 10 March 1991}

“far and away the best from Druid for a long, long time
this is one you must see”_{The Sunday Independent, 10 March 1991}

“breathtaking theatrical and technical precision in terms of set, sound and lighting and most of all impeccable acting” _{Connacht Sentinel 12 March 1991}
