The actors were brilliant but would've liked a few more props. Maybe like a syringe, a few bags of me believe heroin etc .

Lovely writing, great performances. Loved the stripped-down-ness. Well done to a very clever team!

A Tour de force! Compelling theatre! Intelligent acting

I enjoyed it even more on this second viewing. Superb! Melissa gave such an intelligent, restrained and evocative performance in a role which would have been easy to stereotype.

Fucking fantastic.

Fantastic

The show was captivating in its brutal realness.

Was heart wrenching , The acting was brilliant .

Outstanding performance. Very moving

A very sad and depressing story, showing a world that the non drug user doesn`t see. Obviously well acted, given the context.

It was really fantastic. The acting was brilliant and the whole production felt uniquely South African.

Compelling !

Although the concept was good, there were evident flaws. The narrator should be hidden, instead of awkwardly sitting in the corner. The characters were disconnected.The actors had moments of connection but throughout the dialogue they lost touch. I was dissapointed at how aware I was that I was watching a play. We were not drawn into the story. Another shared opinion was that props really wouldnt hurt. Unfortunately poor direction will do this.

Honest and heartfelt performances from both cast members. Harrowing, but will recommend.

Excellent story telling and superb delivery! An awesome account of the life of an addict! Delightful!

Well directed and performed. The play avoids most of the drug drama cliches, doesn't judge and is really about love or, at any rate, mutual need. The decision to have the directions read reinforced this; although occ the stylisation of drug use/preparation was a little odd. Congrats!

I loved Mel’s acting as always.
