Enron

Time Out“Makes you feel sick, in the best possible sense...” Goes some way - as far as is possible, perhaps - to answering the question that both defined and torpedoed Enron: why...?

The Stage“A solid creation with solid characterisation and a thumping good plot...” And Lucy Prebble tells this modern morality tale deftly, with a lightness of touch and a comic understanding that ploughs through the financial smoke and mirrors and reveals the cold humanity at its heart....

Whatsonstage.com“The company crackle with energy and wit now just as they did...” Rupert Goold’s thrilling staging, complete with light sabre choreography, stalking raptors and line-dancing traders is a theatrical feast. This transfer is just what Prebble’s astoundingly mature play deserves...

The Times“I even left the theatre more or less understanding mark-to-market...” Brings out the lure, the turbulence, the brash excitement of the making of money that, sadly for eager investors and trusting employees, turned out to be fairy gold. Nor is the narrative the least unclear...

Guardian“A piece so confident it's astonishing that it is only her second play...” The audience doesn't have to do the maths because Prebble has done it for us, bringing clarity to a complex story, and cleverly blurring the line between fact and fiction to considerable dramatic effect...
