THE VISIT is a haunting musical by Kander and Ebb (CHICAGO, CABARET, SCOTTSBORO BOYS). Broadway veteran Chita Rivera elegantly and effortlessly plays a glamorous elderly Jewish woman scheming to take revenge on her home town for the heartbreak and anti-Semitism she faced in her youth. Rodger Rees is surprisingly and thankfully understated and unmannered as the man who broke Chita's heart all those years ago.

The genius of Robert Askin's hilarious play about a troubled young Christian who's hand puppet becomes possessed by Satan is that he takes it all to unthinkable extremes whilst remaining true to a logical progression of events. It’s somehow so persuasive a journey that you can believe in the spiralling of mayhem right through to the blood dripping, shocking conclusion.
