“Working with lighting designer James Proudfoot and video designer Eric Chad, they’ve come up with fresh ways to carve space out of the dark.
The main effect depends on pale bodies, faces, and hands emerging from a misty void. Sometimes the light creates the corner of a room; at other moments, it erects a wall, and all the audience can see are hands maniacally reaching, pushing, and flailing through it. Most logic-defying, a black spotlight outright swallows people up. Tregarthen and Raymond are fans of old movies, and it shows not only in the dramatic use of light and dark here, but in the way moments are “edited” by going to black—like flashes of thoughts or memories.” - The Georgia Straight
