'What a play... rich, turbulent and satirical' - Guardian
'A romping, sprawling barnstormer' - The Times
'A roguish mix of Henry Fielding and Bertolt Brecht... laudably ambitious in scope and playful in style' - Financial Times
'A punchy piece about the excesses of capitalism... plenty of stinging lines' - Evening Standard
