User Review: 08Dec05: This is a good looking show, with strong performances from a small cast in a small space. The Baron's Court Theatre is a claustrophobic fifty seater, but director Miles Gregory has come up with a really smart set featuring slide projections and piles of paper - appropriate, given how much of the play deals with paper transactions in the forms of letters, notes, diaries etc. Coming in at under two hours, the play feels like a good length for the space, and I particularly enjoyed the final scene, played mostly in the dark, which gave it a gritty tension as the characters, locked in a prison cell, fought with each other in a final, primitive tussle.
