What the critics said:

The twisted dynamics of this mother-son relationship develop through a series of arguments, accusations and increasingly bizarre revelations, the drama heightened by the songs Dinah belts out as she struts about her domestic stage. The complexities of this intricately choreographed battle of the wills are well handled by director Linda Hassall. Ross delivers a powerful physical and vocal performance, working off Kelly's manic characterisation of Joe to hit some riotously uncomfortable comic heights. The Australian

If you like a good cover song, a black comedy with Mother Dearest qualities and a twist of the internal world of Norman Bates, then go and be prepared for a good time. Time Off Magazine
