‘Absolutely cracking – a frighteningly timeless drama that really makes you care passionately – and also despair – about politics. Rebecca Lenkiewicz’s new version is vibrantly fresh and Ergen’s production thrillingly tense. The whole ensemble is strong. Superb stuff.’  Kate Bassett, Indpendent on Sunday

'Far superior to the laborious spectacle the National gave us a decade ago. This is Ibsen stripped to the bone and delivered with rare urgency.'  Michael Billington, Guardian

'Hicks' crusading passion makes for exhilarating drama.'  Benedict Nightingale, The Times

'Hicks' crusading passion makes for exhilarating drama" Benedict Nightingale "Fierce and formidable, all guns blazing, Ergen's production lights up with a cast that is never less than splendid.'  Rhoda Koenig, Independent

'A truly magnificent performance.'  Michael Coveney, What's On Stage

'Burning intensity, a fierce moral thriller with a coiled, tightly wound emotional fervour, perfectly pitched in Ergen’s production and Lenkiewicz’s smart new translation.'  Mark Shenton, Sunday Express

'Lenkiewicz renders Ibsen elegantly for the modern stage.'  Johnathan Gibbs, Time Out

Greg Hicks stars in a devastating and timeless drama about the true cost of honesty in this thrilling new version of Ibsen’s classic.
