The Dumb Waiter
Nice central playground, doesn’t explore enough, touches but backs away from so much.

A Night Out
Oof.
What if a young bloke had inner rage and burst?
This thing is bad, a terrible series of banal scenes only to go 0-60 in act 3 and then revert back. Good god no.

The Hothouse
Misery and murder over the holidays in an institution. So, ya know, FUN!

A Slight Ache
The silent stranger a cypher projecting two characters’ innermost wants and fears upon. But in such brief time it ellicits little.

The Birthday Party
Not a lot done in 3 acts
Plenty of bland back-and-forthing
Limited raising of tension, lacking detail, things are just there.
Bad start to this run
