The Independent - 4 stars - "The smashed clapboard house on Sara Perks's wonderful set could be the one that flattened the Wicked Witch of the East. Its tilted roof becomes a hill that the lovers climb to get away from the pettiness of the town." The Guardian - 4 stars - "Sansom's production and Sara Perks's design capture perfectly the stark savagery of O'Neill's world.” The Telegraph - 9 stars between the two plays! - "With Sara Perks' beautifully lit austere set, dominated by sinister, grasping old trees - it’s as if we’re hurtled headlong inside the merciless machinery of life itself." The Times - 5 stars - "At the start of the play a soaring but dead tree forms a jagged silhouette against the lurid sky; this will turn, like the suits and dresses that become rags, into a featureless, and futureless, black."
