Title: A Nocturnal Suite

15 08 07 - This is a hugely entertaining experience from beginning to
end, however its up to members of the audience to attempt to impose
their own meanings on the production and you may well leave without 
readily finding any. With a good pace and fast rate of change you 
will never know what's going to happen next so you will want to see
some more. Its hugely enigmatic but not without charm and some 
striking contrasts. Mostly between action on stage and the action 
in a multimedia projection overhead that is disorientating and 
unsettling. There is a lot of technology in this show and the whole
is wrapped in text from other plays, music and movie extracts and 
soundtracks. Its as much an art installation as a staged show and 
that must be where it draws its inspiration. It is after all subtitled
as 'the fantasy of two women in a surreal world' or 'what does your
kitchen make you dream of,' and at an odd experimental level it 
works quite well.
