Complete dud. Pointless. Over half the audience walked out before the end.

Time is precious at the fringe. Do not watch this. I am sooty to say, but it has absolutely no redeeming qualities. You’re told at the end that this was an assignment or similar, which they did in a month; it shows. I never thought I would ever write a review like this, but please don’t watch this ‘show’.

The concept of combining VR and live theatre is excellent and provides a way of involving audiences on an international basis as well as being able to work with an international cast and crew. Fascinating as a new way of presenting creative work.
