Quotes from Reviews:
“Battista’s wood and opaque, perspex design provides a stark, icy platform for the action and Clarke uses its in-the-round design to give the audience intimate and sometimes disquieting proximity to the characters.” – Kate Herbert – Herald Sun
“Jacob Battista’s set is a glass-topped platform in the centre of the Courthouse space, the arena for these fights internal and external. The glass is cracked, like the ice that plays a transformative part in Eddie’s story, and like an idea of maleness that leaves its participants no secure place to stand.” – Owen Richardson – The Age
