ABOUT THE PLAY
"A tremendous cast gives each exchange authenticity. Tom Glynn-Carney, as the explosive outsider, quivers memorably in his hoodie. Marianne Jean-Baptiste is remarkable: driven by sentimentality but never mushy, hardened by the need to blind herself to the truth. Bryan Cranston unravels and shrivels as the patriarch from bluff geniality through blazered spryness to gaunt agitation. Paapa Essiedu is superb. Lolloping, as if he is moving in water, gentle in speech, he has the sweet air of an idealist, but the complicated emotions of a hero. Here is acting and a production that takes Miller ... into essential truth-telling."
— Susannah Clapp, The Observer
"The whole thing plays out symphonically, building to an astonishing crescendo. Right near the end, Joe finally says the play’s name, its meaning clear at last. When I’ve seen the play before, there’s been no special reaction. Here, the audience gasped."
★★★★★ Andrzej Lukowski, Time Out
“an astonishing, deeply moving piece of theatre”
