“Subtle touches point out how this family is constantly on the move – their furniture is never fully unpacked, retaining its plastic protective coverings, so that you are always reminded that their domestic safety is always at threat. Life is transient and everything transparent. ”
“The set also provides subtle magic – a mountain of rubbish appears when the door is opened, seconds later it’s just an empty room; there’s a recurring gag with a bottomless handbag.”
