A new play commissioned by the Dailes Theatre

IR Zane Radzobe ︎︎︎︎

Flawless psychological theatre...

The text is good: James has woven into the play serious reflections on many currently painful issues: including digital ethics, escapism, digital childhood, real and simulated relationships; the writing is clever and thoughtful…

In the end we have a classic piece of director’s theatre, with a wonderful cast, which tells the story of the state of contemporary culture.
