Reviews

[ray · Rating 4 out of 5]

Deeply disturbing exploration of Australian masculinities. I seriously feel so horrible after reading this, but I think it's a necessary play. It demands Australians to reflect on our culture.

[Emma Darragh · Rating 4 out of 5]

Painful, incisive, and frightening.

[Emily · Rating 5 out of 5]

Confronting, chilling and difficult to read but an ultimately powerful play that deals with an unfortunately still relevant issue.

[Caitlin Baker · Rating 5 out of 5]

“He looks like me. He doesn’t look like his father at all.”

Painful and chilling reread.
