Woven in with sibling teasing and intense moments of truth and love, both the writing and the acting struck the balance perfectly. It was a compelling piece of theatre that drew audiences into the rollercoaster of the story and left your heartbroken at the end.

This Madness Dionysus has Inspired
A show is ultimately a reflection of not only the director's vision but also their personality. When it comes to Freyja Harrison-Wood's depiction of the wild and undeniably unhinged Maenads it is by far the highest compliment I can give to say that this play really did reflect its director.
