What we said: “Hannah Moscovitch’s superb Canadian two-hander offers a precise and brilliantly focussed exploration of the current post- #metoo moment in gender politics. Written as a monologue, but fascinatingly read on stage by a male actor while the female central character - who has written the story - listens, reacts and occasionally comments, it tells the story of a happily married Toronto journalist who nonetheless finds herself increasingly depressed and mentally uneasy, haunted by a frightening sense of anger, and of dissociation from her everyday life... It leaves behind a profound uncertainty about how far we can protect women from exploitation while leaving space in our culture, for the daft, anarchic energy of real sexual desire.”
