'Suddenly with four new plays opening within 12 months, Richard Bean has become the playwright of the moment and now, in Honeymoon Suite, his most prestigious premiere to date, he has written what seems like the perfect play' The Financial Times on Honeymoon Suite
'Toast is as funny, touching, and brilliant an account of men at work as any we have had since David Storey's The Changing Room' The Spectator on Toast
'Cunningly effective' The Times on Mr England
'A brilliant black satire that plays on an Ortonesque reversal of values. Bean distributes deftly crafted, razor-sharp lines among a cast of characters who would sooner snort them than deliver them.' The Guardian on Smack Family Robinson
