It has the bittersweet atmosphere of a French film, and like a film the story is told in a series of intriguingly interconnected flashbacks. The effect is of mirrors within mirrors - totally beguiling. Premiered by the Traverse Theatre as one of their two headline shows for the 2006 Edinburgh Festival.
