★★★★★
Hothouse has a delicate line to walk here, between big-picture and personal, deadly serious and wild fun and funny. Malaprop pulls it off with skill, style and substance.

★★★★★
A production of such unbridled brilliance it’s practically flawless.
— Chris O’Rourke, The Arts Review
A company of real ambition. One which is using theatrical form to grapple with the complexities of a world where the ground is constantly shifting beneath our feet and where what we believe can be recalibrated not just on a daily basis but minute by minute.
— Lyn Gardner, Stagedoor
