reviews
“The biggest takeaway though was that the director Steph Lee, and her fellow cast and crew creatives that worked to construct Slay, are ones to watch for the future.”
“As director, Lee demonstrates impressive skill in making the most of limited resources to deliver a captivating and cohesive production.”
“It’s fitting that Steph Lee previously directed Declan Greene’s Home Economics, because this show feels a bit like Sisters Grimm’s early work - at first it appears chaotic, but then you see the gold underneath.”
“The creative design team (for sound, lighting, and AV designs were perfectly in concert) should be praised for possibly the most aesthetically brilliant show I’ve seen on a small stage.”
“This piece of devised theatre wields the blade of satire with a maniacal edge.”
“Slay is the best original work I’ve seen in Melbourne for a long time.”
