It's certainly language to read out loud, and the Yorkshire moors sound a very appropriate place!Alison Croggonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08398213223487458758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202906.post-66275036539236223282009-09-08T22:25:34.381+10:002009-09-08T22:25:34.381+10:00Thank you Alison - have just read the play out wal...Thank you Alison - have just read the play out walking my dogs on moors of North Yorkshire. Due to the remoteness of where I was walking I read some of the Skriker speeches out loud - fabulous, fabulous use of language. I'd urge anyone reading it to do the same - a bit like Shakespeare it takes on a new dimension when spoken. I wish I had seen this production but your excellent review and Garethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202906.post-38830544845489004492009-03-13T18:35:00.000+11:002009-03-13T18:35:00.000+11:00well thank you for this review.am doing my A-Level...well thank you for this review.<BR/><BR/>am doing my A-Levels and I have to write a representation for this play which is hard for me coz I don't get any of it.

I hope you do get to stage it, though I imagine it would be incredibly challenging.Alison Croggonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08398213223487458758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202906.post-1158906937533232742006-09-22T16:35:00.000+10:002006-09-22T16:35:00.000+10:00Your review sent me over to the library to read th...Your review sent me over to the library to read this play; I'm not sure I understood it, but it scared the living shit out of me and made me want to stage it (though I think I'll have to buy it in a Methuen collection--the cover, which is the one shown here, is so creepy that once I'd read the play I had to return it to the library the next day rather than look at that face--or have it looking atSylvia Drakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16021429676492233058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7202906.post-1158016807406816852006-09-12T09:20:00.000+10:002006-09-12T09:20:00.000+10:00I am so sorry to have missed it....darn it.I suppo...I am so sorry to have missed it....darn it.I suppose the only way to see theatre is to just go as soon as you hear about something and not wait to try and persuade your friends(!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
