"It's a totally intense experience, theater up close and personal. You will never see the actors so close, so intensely again. And that doesn't just mean spatially, but also in terms of the effect."

(Wolfgang Schilling, mdr Kultur Radio)

“Well composed, a kind of spiritual archeology emerges. [...] An inkling of the temporary validity of every order quickly wafts through the cellar. [...] Atmosphere is created by intensively played, sometimes almost conspiratorial miniatures, by dark niches and people in ghostly white bathrobes."

(Dimo Rieß, Leipziger Volkszeitung)
 

“It gets particularly oppressive when a monk tells in the semi-darkness how his faith was considered wrong with the Reformation and the monastery was dissolved. Andreas Keller makes the struggle for truth and conviction credible, above all through voice and presence. All the other actors also succeed well, with accuracy, the reliance on the language and the effect of the proximity, to play their stations captivatingly. One is very close to Dirk Lange, who intertwines gay history with experiences of reunification and post-reunification. When he speaks of the implosion of the utopian moment when the new German-German society turned out to be only German society, that is moving. And then he sings, standing there gestureless and desolate and yet making a big picture, Depeche Mode: "Tonight / And I haven't felt so alive / In years". These historical labyrinths are intense.” (Tobias Prüwer, nachtkritik.de - Top 10 of the week for 3 consecutive weeks)
