Churchill “has come up with something compelling and strange: an intimate revue about the increasing surreality of modern life” ~ Guardian

“Puts one in mid of the painter Magritte…Each brief scene is preceded by doomy, tabloid television ‘news music’, and a graphic announcing some heavy topical subject - The War in Bosnia, for instance, or the Northern Ireland Peace Process. Then the performers… play a scene that has nothing to do with its title…The piece creates a haunting impression of urban alienation, self-obsession and pre-millennial tension” ~ Daily Telegraph
