Cracking entertainment
This is cracking entertainment, highly amusing and brilliantly performed. It feels like a step back in time to a rural world in Ireland where a distraction from mundane life is desperately needed. And it comes perfectly in the form of Robert Sheehan, triggering the marvellously feisty Niamh Cusack and pretty Ruth Negga to go into battle for his attentions. A wonderful yarn, beautifully directed with an evocative set. Go see it and it's only 2 hours 10 minutes!

Very entertaining
Definitely recommend this play to everyone I know - great acting, timing and concept. Everyone in the family will enjoy watching this brilliant cast bring the play to life.
Dated and unimaginative
John Crawley's interpretation cannot be saved by Ruth Negga's and Niamh Cusack's strong performance in this uncreative adaption of Synge's Playboy of the Western World.
