Audience & Press comments:
"A superb job in translating from Norway to India." F. Curtiss, ArtsDepot
"So relevant to today and the acting very powerful...you have converted me into a theatre fan." L. Bateman, Peepul Centre

"Totally extraordinary...one of the most electrifying pieces of stagecraft I have ever seen" P. Lewis, Hexham
