See it if you’re a fan of the book/film and/or you love gritty absorbing immersive theatre. This is an intense show.
Don't see it if you’re prudish, don’t like swearing, actors interacting with you. and beware of the splash zone around the toilet…
See it if Second time I've seen it. This story never gets old.
Don't see it if You don't like immersive shows, nudity and uncomfortable situations. This is not a comedy. It's a difficult shaw to watch but amazing.
See it if You want to see an intimate show with a great cast, minimal staging used to maximum effect and well portrayed, very edgy characters
Don't see it if You don't want to interact with the characters and be up close (or sit at the very back)
See it if You liked the books and movies
Don't see it if Well..go see it anyway
