Review
'Andy Barrett's new version does an excellent job in clarifying the plot and even explaining the complexities of the Norwegian electoral system. Barrett also allows us, without pushing the point, to savour the topicality of a play in which principles are sacrificed for power...' Guardian. 'Barrett's adaptation is authentically perceptive' The British Theatre Guide.
