Kranz succeeds in finding understanding in the unthinkable.

With rigour and clarity of purpose, actor/director Fran Kranz holds the audience in his hands, probing at the unthinkable and daring to keep the faith.

Mass is a masterful directorial debut for Fran Kranz.

The writing is so deft, and the actors so committed, that by the end you feel you’ve touched the burning core of something real.

It’s an airless chamber piece, a self-assured gamble that pays off almost instantaneously thanks to the four impeccable performances at its centre, each parent processing, intellectualising and vocalising their anguish in different ways.
