Appalling. This is absolutely not a recreation of a case. It's a complete fiction. Which would be fine, were it not for the clumsy, tawdry racism and depiction of mental health issues. This is clearly a fly-by-night production company and hopefully they'll be gone soon. Don't waste your money. Low production values, dull script writing.

Disappointing

The cast were great. It's an interesting idea that much can be done with. It's not really based upon one true story. I may be a composite of multiple real cases possibly. Because it's not real, the verdict at the end can only be regarded as fictional. That makes me question the choices made by the writer Steve Cummings. The way he has chosen to portray asylum seekers, ethnic minorities and severe mental health conditions is disturbing. The play is essentially meaningless. It's just designed to rule with the sophistication of an online troll. These are sensitive issues that require a much better writer than Steve Cummings.
