“Ken Alexander’s excellent production…utterly involving… unfolds with satisfying precision.” **** Keith Bruce,The Herald

“Ken Alexander’s stylish staging makes a good case for Bridie’s play… deliciously black, almost grand guignol, comedy.” **** Robert Dawson Scott, The Times

“Ken Alexander’s fine Pitlochry production – on a wonderful skewed- perspective set by Charles Cusick Smith – makes a strong case for the sheer intrinsic interest of the play; reflected in an outstanding performance from Sandy Batchelor as young Dr. Johnson, and a bravely demonic one from Alan Steele as the play’s murderous and charismatic anti-hero.” **** Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman
