How does Rory Mullarkey's translation contribute to or detract from the overall effectiveness of the production?

The staging effectively uses the Wanamaker's claustrophobic space to highlight the emotional intensity of the family's interactions. Rory Mullarkey's translation emphasizes repetitive dialogue, underlining the characters' attempts to convince themselves of their emotional states—'I'm happy,' or 'I'm done.' This repetition, while highlighting their internal struggles, somewhat lessens the emotional impact.
