Family tension is rife in The Holy Rosenbergs, now playing at the Menier Chocolate Factory in a major London revival.

Ryan Craig's sharp domestic drama returns more than a decade after its 2011 premiere, once again exploring what happens when private loyalties clash with public responsibility.

Directed by Lindsay Posner and led by a strong cast including Dan Fredenburgh, Nitai Levi, Adrian Lukis, Dorothea Myer-Bennett, Tracy-Ann Oberman, Nicholas Woodeson, and Alex Zur, the play centres on a North London family whose dinner-table disagreements spiral into something far bigger. As their daughter Ruth investigates alleged war crimes in Gaza for the UN, the Rosenbergs find themselves wrestling with questions of identity, justice, and community - while trying to keep their own lives from falling apart.

So how does this timely revival land with critics? Here's a look at what the reviews are saying.

The Holy Rosenbergs Critic Reviews

"It's a bit sub-Miller in an age where you can't move for revivals of actual Miller. But whatever faults it may have, there is, sadly, no sign of The Holy Rosenbergs fading into irrelevance." - Time Out

"What The Holy Rosenbergs lacks in escapism, it more than makes up for in its thought-provoking nature. Its stark relevance makes for a poignant and powerful piece of theatre that asks questions about loyalty and what is right in the world, managing to simultaneously work on a global scale while keeping the action rooted to a singular family." - All That Dazzles

"Set on a single fraught evening, it's the sort of play where characters representing useful debating positions happen to pop in, carrying crucial reports in buff envelopes. Despite the spuming argument, it's the bleak silences when talk fades away that are most eloquent: when Woodeson's gaze turns inward and we see his defeat." - The Guardian

"Premiered in 2011 at the National Theatre, this pressure cooker of a domestic drama has returned set as before in a Jewish household in Edgware, north London, but somewhat tweaked so as to reflect the ramped-up political landscape. The difference is a production from Lindsay Posner that cuts far more deeply than the text did first time round, coupled with a realisation that the central issues of the play occupy today's headlines with a gathering ferocity reflected in the commitment of Posner's first-rate cast." - London Theatre.co.uk

"Lindsay Posner's well-focused production, which balances pain with humour, is set in a recognizably real suburban interior, designed in detail by Tim Shortall, and fields some emotionally truthful acting. " - The Arts Desk

"Strong performances hold together this knotty, overstuffed drama about tensions within the Anglo-Jewish community." - The Stage

"Posner's direction keeps the first act intentionally slow-burning. It's a steady accumulation of pressure: conversations that go nowhere, family rituals that feel slightly off-kilter, all building towards a second act that is far more tense and absorbing." - Theatre Weekly
