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

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
