REVIEWS
"... a rich and beautiful theatrical experience that is by turns gripping and tender" ~ Herald
"The gasp, so rarely heard in the theatre, rings out often here ... first-rate ... situated on the slipway between dream and daily life ... a mesmerising evening" ~ Observer
"A chill and moving piece of theatre ... truly frightening" ~ Scotsman
" ... a characteristically poetic and polished piece of work ... sensual, beguiling ... literally breathtaking" ~ Guardian
"Haunting and claustrophobic, Let The Right One In finds the glacial heart of the Nordic vampire myth and nourishes it with the blood of live performance" ~ The Stage
