It's the 1950s, Johnny Silver's gone missing, everyone at the nightclub is in hiding from Sam Ross...and it's going to take you a little time to work out why.

We were half way through the first act before I started to get an idea of what was going on, the story starting at a slow plod as the complexities of the plot were charted.

In the meantime, however, the characters became well-defined and convincing; in particular, Darren Cockrill's portrayal of the rather psychotic Baby was hauntingly good.

It wasn't until the second act that the story began to truly captivate the audience, though, and made the slightly tedious first act very much worth sitting through.
