THEATRE WEEKLY
For Oedipus Electronica (Writer / Director)
The script is simply remarkable. A telling that is so euphorically troubling that it could never fail. You will inevitably leave feeling like you’ve been slapped across the face but that is purely credit to a simply fantastic show.

Mella Faye stars in, writes and directs this production which fuses the heady blood-soaked, incestuous themes of Oedipus with a tale of contemporary urban grit. Faye beautifully weaves through these narratives. A truly breathtaking theatrical experience.

FEST MAG
For Medea Electronica (Writer / Director)
Throughout the intense 70-minute performance I was on the edge of my seat and felt absolute terror at how the story unfolds. I cannot recommend this jaw dropping performance enough.

It’s a visceral experience that reminds 21st century audiences that for all of their ‘sophistication’, we are creatures of emotion, capable of the most monstrous acts.
BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL
For Medea Electronica (Writer / Director)
The story has been told countless times, but in the midst of this production, you feel shocked and bewildered by the events that are unfolding. It feels contemporary, and at times completely terrifying.
