What I liked

I like the combination of dark comedy, disturbing imagery, poetic dialogue, and psychological drama. The influence of Antonin Artaud’s Theatre of Cruelty suggests that the production is designed to provoke a visceral response rather than provide comfortable, conventional entertainment. I love tomb of the mask which is interesting.

What I didn't like

Nothing

My overall impression

One of the production’s most intriguing features is its immersive use of darkness. The actors perform almost entirely in the dark, using headlamps to illuminate themselves as they move around and among the audience. This approach has the potential to make the audience feel less like observers and more like participants trapped inside the miners’ claustrophobic world.
