Keith D, 'Edinburgh Spotlight' ****
In this tight and gripping three-hander, director Stuart Nicoll shines a light on the dark motives of Burke & Hare as crime writer Caroline Dunford's script seeks to uncover the truth of who was leading who; and of the nature of evil itself.
Kate Adams, 'The Journal ' ***
Gregor Firth's fantastic one-liners as Burke's treacherous sidekick, Hare.
Joyce McMillan, 'The Scotsman ' ***
Over an hour of tense dialogue, Caroline Dunford's script covers some fascinating ground, in exploring the nature of evil, and Stuart Nicoll's confident production features three impressive performances, from Andrew Hainey as Burke, Gregor Firth as Hare, and Mark Kydd as the puzzled and complex Captain Rose.
