"IFORD’S SMALL-SCALE STAGING MEANT A RETURN TO THREE INDIVIDUALS, ABLY SUNG - ALBEIT PRACTICALLY HIDDEN BY THEIR COSTUMES - BY AOIFE O’CONNELL, CLAIRE FILER AND SARAH RICHMOND. THEY WERE A SUITABLY DARK PRESENCE, EVERY MOVEMENT CAREFULLY CHOREOGRAPHED BY JO MEREDITH SO AS TO EMPHASIZE THEIR OTHER-WORLDLINESS.”
