BWW Reviews: THAT EYE, THE SKY WAXES LYRICAL IN RURAL BAMBOOZLE at New Theatre
by Brodie Paparella - March 27, 2016
There comes a moment for every child when you realise that the floor is not made of lava, and not because it suits you for it to be carpet so you can stop playing and have dinner, but because lava and carpet are completely different things that can never be the same or cross-mutable. Suddenly your entire scope of possibility changes and you realise you will never make-believe the floor is lava again. That Eye, The Sky is a piece of work nurtured in this very emotion of sad clarity, this point of the mind that reaches its tipping point past imagination into maturity.

A long-time favourite among Australian audiences, Dead Men Talking made a one-night stop in Sydney to tell the next chapter in the lives of two of the nation's best-known writers.
