details challenge the viewer and bore uncanny in this day that seems commonplace: the little girl why she hands stained with blood? The nurse is she really or is it a character from the imagination of Claire? What is this war about which the nurse? It is this blurring between reality and unreality more banal the most threatening is the strength of Martin Crimp . Behind the humor, absurdity, anguish pierces true, an insidious threat.

Everything is fair, accurate, perfectly controlled. Since the admirable diction all excellent actors to set design which drew a sleek, abstracted, which sometimes appears in the background, like a mirage a bench or tree. The glossy black ground casts a fresh light on the actors as if they were lit by candles. Worth seeing.
