The critical consensus

Adapted from the testimony of a Nazi commandant convicted of the murder of 900,000 people, this superbly acted drama is a meticulous, compelling triumph.

Mark Fisher, The Guardian, 21/05/2015

Gareth Nicholls' intense, slow-burning production.

(*) Neil Cooper, Coffee-Table Notes, 21/05/2015

Into That Darkness is a production that will keep you engaged long after the house lights come up.

(*) Jennifer Minich, The Public Reviews, 21/05/2015

Superb.

Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman, 26/05/2015

The central conflict remains utterly, horribly compelling.
