'Bissett's witty, well-observed writing combines well with his bold, shape-changing performance; the dangerous sexuality of the black widow spider, personified in black, high-heeled boots, is a particular treat. Whether you love or fear our eight-legged friends, this is a delightfully unusual piece of theatre.' Mark Brown The Herald
