★★★★ The Irish Mail on Sunday

“An eye-riveting, asymmetrical and slightly surreal set” What’s On Stage

“Simon Kenny’s radical and modern set design...forces the viewer into a bird’s eye view on the events in hand, gives a nightmarish quality to the play and exemplifies the detritus of the character’s lives” The Stage

“The playwright’s intentions may be best interpreted by Simon Kenny’s set. A house languishing on a rubbish dump, Kenny makes Orton’s metaphor more dangerous by accumulating the innards of a discarded street into piles of lumber teetering above the playing space, poised to collapse upon the occupants and turn their lives to debris” The Irish Times

“Sexuality creeps around Simon Kenny’s brilliantly oppressive set” Evening Echo
