My overall impression
One mark of a good show is that you leave the theater discussing what you have just witnessed. This show had my husband and I talking long after the show was over. Without giving anything away, this is what I can tell you about “Cleaner Than Blood”…
I found myself anxious in moments and intrigued throughout. Alex Scott makes great use of the space, creating the illusion of a much larger mansion. His choice of music and dramatic lighting helps set the tone for this well-directed dark play.
The actors all turned in remarkable performances, but I especially enjoyed watching Kjai Block in the role of Jeffrey “the quiet one”. This is NOT a “feel-good” show. If you are looking for a mindless laugh, look elsewhere. But if you are looking for an entertaining piece that will keep you playing guessing games through the very end, then this is the show for you.
