"an audacious production" The Sydney Morning Herald

"vibrant and joyous" The Program

"spirited and sexy" The Sun-Herald

"Spilling over with farcical byplay... pointed anachronism and sexual high jinks, the comedy also casts a darkness so unsettling that at times you shiver even as you're laughing."
The Village Voice

"A remarkable, entertaining comedy." Time Out, New York

Lust, love and a desire for freedom drive this radical romp which joyfully opens the season. A knight with an obsession, a priest with a phobia, a Viking Lord with a secret, a French Princess and her wry maid all head to Cumbria, fleeing Ethelred, the love-starved British King with a killer instinct. Sleeping in the caves of pagan gods, dodging the curse of the bee-keeping monks, filling stews with magic mushrooms and running from the King’s marauding soldiers. It’s… ROAD TRIP… 1000 AD!

Silence earned Buffini the 1999 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize for best English-language play by a woman and comes from the same team that brought you In The Blood in 2005.
