How To Disappear

Hi,

I saw 'How To Disappear Completely And Never Be Found' last week and it has been on my mind since. I am unsure how to express this, but I will try anyway. Seeing the play was an incredible experience for me. The performance of the actors was absolutely incredible and the lead, in particular, never once stepped out of character. The play was one of the best, if not the best, I have ever seen. The theme, I believe, went right to the core of our society's pressing issue: what happens when you get where you always aimed to be but you still feel this emptiness inside. I would like to thank you for holding up a mirror to our society and for offering theatre that is bold, moving and excellent. Well done.
