selected press quotes



CONSPIRACY

  • "A brilliant theatrical brainteaser that asks us to find the line between credibility and incredulity" - Fest Magazine
  • "Dan Hutton's naturalistic direction turns the audience into conspiracy voyeurs - peering into each character's head to see how the cogs are turning" - Miro Magazine
  • “Directed with a good measure of freedom by Dan Hutton (the interaction with the audience is delightful)” - Ought to be Clowns
  • “A fast paced show that requires the audience to sit up and listen” - West End Wilma


ANYONE'S GUESS HOW WE GOT HERE​

  • "A cryptic, ghostly, disarming thing" - WhatsOnStage
  • "Co-directed by Joe Boylan and Dan Hutton, Anyone's Guess How We Got Here has a slippery, unsettling atmosphere" - The Stage
  • "This is a kind of kaleidoscopic, spiralling, fever-dream of a piece" - Andrew Haydon

BINGO

  • “A witty, rapid-fire monologue” - The Stage
  • “Careful and considered direction” - LondonTheatre1
  • “A friendly trip through the humourous and hard-hitting” - Mind the Blog

BIG GUNS

  • "Dan Hutton is one of our most promising young directors" - Time Out
  • "Dan Hutton's bold production grips from the off and refuses to let go" - The Stage
  • "The slightly musty smell of The Yard Theatre gives Dan Hutton's outstanding production a real sense of atmosphere" - Aleks Sierz
  • "Dan Hutton's world premiere production of [Big Guns] is about as sure-footed and intelligent as you could wish to see" - Andrew Haydon

​THE SPANISH TRAGEDY

  • “Essential viewing” – The New Current
  • “Dan Hutton’s clear-eyed production of this convoluted play steers a steady path through the death and destruction wrought by revenge, more revenge and yet more revenge.” – Exeunt
  • “There is a real gumption and flair in here” – Time Out
  • “Director Dan Hutton has taken an academically rigorous approach to the text, skinning and fileting it, peeling apart its layers of meaning. There are some bold moments here – the play-within-a-play is brilliantly unexpected and forces the audience to think about the nature of what they’ve been watching, the construction of it.” – The Stage


  • "Barrel Organ have changed the game as regards assumptions re: UK dramaturgy" - Andrew Haydon on Some People Talk About Violence

  • One of 11 “Faces to look out for in 2016” in WhatsOnStage
