Yes, there were tea and biscuits... and maths!
A lot of fun, and thought provoking moments.
"The evening is intellectually spry- a collective experiment. If it has a single message, it is that the process matters more than the solution. This is Greyscale's credo too."
THE GUARDIAN, reviewed by Kate Kellaway
"It is a show that champions the idea that we can all be radicals and make a difference"
THE GUARDIAN, reviewed by Lyn Gardner
"Greyscale's brilliant, dexterous examination of Julian Assange- a show that takes innovation as its subject. [...] Tenet mixes two radicals- political and mathematical- and it's the best kind of brain-ache. You have to sprint to keep up, but the result is a complexity unrivalled at the London stage"
TIME OUT
"The conventions of theatre are also up for analysis in a performance that is sardonically served with a 'soupçon of post-modern destruction'"

On the Design:
"Visual cues work best, like Garance Marneur's stunning Constructivist set and on-stage model box; stylish realisations of the theatrical square-root theory.
EXEUNT Magazine
"On Garance Marneur's bright red set, marked with geometrical lines which continue through furniture and objects and in perspective along black walls [...] with parallel worlds in Chinese boxes getting even smaller by geometrical progression and a black board by a whiteboard for chalking up equations, proposals and instructions they launch out into abstract algebra and then begin to tell the story of Evariste Gallois."
THE BRITISH THEATRE GUIDE
"Garance Marneur's set within a set within a set is a brilliant physicalisation of the central mathematical concept of the play"
WHATSONSTAGE
"Designer Garance Marneur's elegant scarlet classroom includes a doll's-house-sized version of the set- so miraculous it made the audience gasp. It invites us to consider the integrity of scale and its effect on the weighing of truth."
THE GUARDIAN
And a last one on the production...
"Without seeing this piece all over again, which I am sorely tempted to do, it is impossible to fully investigate Greyscale's creation to the level it deserves. Part of my brain is still trying to catch up. Perhaps the best sort of metaphor for Tenet is not an algebraic one but, inspired by the emergency biscuits, a dessert related one. Because really Greyscale is a lot like brain freeze; it makes the head heart, but it is more than worth the pain."
