Giles Thomas

“Giles Thomas’ ever present soundtrack keeps anxieties high, and makes devastating moments - like Hench’s nightmares or Taliban’s heartbreaking demise - feel utterly unbearable.”

“It’s rare for a play to encompass such extremes of violence and tenderness; and the intensity is further enhanced by the dark symbolism of Ned Bennett’s production.”

“Bennett has chosen to reunite with the creative team from his atmospheric production of Pomona, and designer Georgia Lowe pairs battered sofas with a wall of floodlights, which lighting designer Elliot Griggs makes flicker as the boys spend hours immersed in Playstation games or gazing at scenes of anal penetration.”
