Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo at Young Vic Review
8 / 10
The quality of the production is outstanding. Rajha Shakiry’s set consists of crumbling concrete, sandbags and dust, providing a detailed backdrop for striking visuals throughout. Jackie Shemesh’s lighting design blends warm and cold tones, merging life and death as the text itself does. Likewise, the props collected by Kate Margrett - including a soiled severed head and rich fake blood - made for some brilliantly horrific imagery, which altogether provides an exciting variety throughout.
