Critic Reviews (4)

[The Sun, The Moon and The Stars is] a solid debut play from Baruwa-Etti, and a springboard for a truly epic performance from Tanji.

[Kibong Tanji] makes this chaos powerful. I have never seen anyone shoulder a story across the stage in the way she does in Nadia Fall’s restless production.
