Echo has a broken heart. A gutted-from-the-inside, cut-off-your-toes broken heart. Help is just a phone call away, but he opts for a classical (feral) form of revenge. This queer, unruly adaptation of Ovid features a dog crate, two microphones and seventeen grapefruits. 'A powerhouse performance' (TheatreWeekly.com). 'A truly haunting and exciting hour of theatre' (NorthWestEnd.co.uk).
