A full and quite diverse audience there tonight, for the final performance of this powerful and disturbing play.

I saw it yesterday afternoon - I think it deserves a second life. I know it's only April but it will definitely be in my Top 5 this year. Brilliantly written (I like plays that make me feel uncomfortable, that make me chuckle and feel disgusted at the same time), even more brilliantly acted. Everyone was great but Tim Hopper and K Todd Freeman blew my mind. I also have to say that the audience was incredibly focused and quiet (except a few sobs and sighs in Act 2), completely transported. Which, I guess, says even more about how good this play is.
I very much hope it returns one day.

I wasn't very keen on the 1st half, seemed to plod along but 'adored' the second as it was both gripping and thought provoking.
I work with paedofiles and the narrative was spot on.
3 of the abusers had terrible communication skills which was jarring to listen to /watch but I yet I was 'fine' with the content.
