'Love and Other Acts of Violence' is an audaciously jagged creation. The play feels overwrought and overcrowded as a whole, but has mesmerising moments and it is heroic in its endeavour to be different.

It's impossible to fault the ambition or intent of 'Love and Other Acts of Violence', [but] there are simultaneously too many ideas ... and too few. Even if I have reservations about the play, I wouldn't have missed [it].

'Love and Other Acts of Violence' comes very close to being an amazing evening of theatre, yet a misjudged shift in tone towards the end robs it of crucial energy. It leaves you hungry to see what the performers and Lynn might go on to do in the future.
