What the critics said..
“This is a great work of theatre, brilliantly realised in what is Ryan’s
finest production in a long line of exceptional work. It should not
be missed. He has cast with precision, and then extracted inspired
performances that carefully ramp up the tension, until the sadness
of the predicament is overwhelming. With this production Ryan
slices to the heart of Arthur Miller’s masterpiece, arguably the
greatest American play of all.”
