Acting Masterclass
17 February 2017
There are times, particularly act I (of III), when the pace is slow and overly portentous, but this is forgotten in the face of such amazing acting in total, but particularly Ed Harris (who never leaves the stage). It is hard to ever take your eyes off Harris who is utterly compelling and ultimately completely sympathetic. There is a way in which the ultimate reveal doesn't quite equate to the disturbing level implied. Overall though, I simply loved watching these actors, particularly Harris and Madigan, at the top of their game.

This production is a slow burner that packs a devastating punch. Ed Harris gives an unforgettable performance.

Beautifully staged - so intimate you are part of this broken family. The dialogue has humour but the despair of no hope shines through. Special applause to the young girl who accidentally visits.

Buried Child
5 February 2017
I thought Ed Harris was spectacular but I found the first at quite tedious. It took some of the actors quite some time to find their characters but by the second act I was deep into it and by the third act I was really intrigued.

Completely mesmerising!
3 February 2017
Ed Harris is amazing in this play which resonates especially powerfully at the moment given the current state of American politics. It is good to see a play about the American experience not centred on New York or California but expresses those often unheard voices of the middle of nowhere or as Dodge put it- the boondocks.

Ed Harris gives an Acting Lesson

Ed Harris gives one of the Best Performances on stage.. Ever! Right up there with Al Pacino in American Buffalo & Amanda Plummer in Agnès of God. Everything about this production is First Rate and not to be missed. I'm here from Los Angeles and it is so far the highlight of my Trip

Disappointing
23 January 2017
Whilst production was excellent as was Ed Harris, I found the storyline slow, disjointed and in places lacking credulity. Characters were given insufficient opportunity to evolve or be developed and opportunities for for deeper humanist understanding where missed. Very slow and uninspiring.

Thought-provoking and beautifully acted drama
29 December 2016
Divided into three acts (and two intervals) this play was a slow burner, which started off slowly and built to a jaw-dropping crescendo. Excellent acting all round including very strong performances from the two leads. The theme of the American dream gone wrong is one we see in many dramas, but this one was reinforced by its powerful imagery and carefully placed words which left you with a lot to mull over at the end. Recommended.

Excellent play. Terrible theatre.
25 December 2016
This is one family you wouldn't want round for Christmas dinner! The play skated round Tennessee Williams themes and the performance were universally excellent with Harris and Madagan particularly good on stage. There was a general unease which crept though the second act as the play hurtled towards its shocking conclusion and at 3h hours long with 2 x 10 min breaks, it went surprisingly quickly. The problem was the theatre who have, in an effort to squeeze in extra seats sacrificed any kind of comfort, something very much needed for a play of this length. See review of seats below.

Great acting by Ed Harris, his wife and the young lady! Can't figure out the play though...
Thought it was just me who couldn't figure it out but none of the people we were sitting around really understood the relationships properly... the writer could have left more clues... makes you feel stupid for not being able to figure it out better!

Buried Child
18 December 2016
A very good production with excellent portrayals from all characters with Ed Harris proving what a masterful actor he is. It's very dark showing such a tortured family - although with some humourous lines. Hadn't realised it was from the 1970s. Terrific set - although "props" had their work cut out!

I can see why the play won the Pulitzer Price. Excellent inside of the real American tragedy with a fantastic cast. Ed Harris acting just blew my mind. I have no words to express how fabulous this experience was. Probably the best play I’ve seen so far in the theatres.

Excellent! The cast were fabulous as was the production itself. As dark and miserable as the scene was there were still some lighthearted, very human moments that made it a delight to watch. Ed Harris was definitely the highlight, though not overshadowing the rest of the actors.

Dark,somber,witty,spectacular.
14 December 2016
Ed Harris is captivating as you would expect,as was Amy Madigan, two of our best character actors I would say, the whole supporting cast was at the very top of their game also, the play is dark and sinister but carries the audience through the story from beginning to end, be aware the show will run for nearly three hours with two short intermissions but it certainly doesn't seem 'long' a very enjoyable piece of work in my opinion.

Pacing too slow Dialogue too low.
10 December 2016
As this play is dialogue driven it's imperative the dialogue be heard. I am NOT hearing impaired, but there were times when some of the actors's were hardly audible.
The pace of the production was far too slow making it a dirge to sit through; apart from Ed Harris, there was much unconvincing TV- acting. A good play in a mediocre production.

Buried Child
30 November 2016
This is a dystopian play about the death of the American Dream, both moving and depressing with a bitter wit and superlatively acted esp by Ed Harris as the father Dodge, but all the cast were excellent. For me the most moving part was Dodge's loving enumeration of all he had 'before'.

We loved this play! The fact that
Ed Harris was already on stage and in character as the audience were taking their seats was just so unusual and very amusing. Each cast member was riveting. We would thoroughly recommend this.

Superb production
20 November 2016
This was the best play we've seen for years: true to the text, with unaffected and consistently true performances from the cast - there wasn't a weak link. All those critics who give mediocre productions 4 or 5 stars should come to see 'Buried Child', to remind themselves of what great theatre looks like.
