Critics Review
An intensity, a demoniac misery, a ferocious humour…no one can remain indifferent to its power, its resilience of ideas and its range of language
An intensity, a demoniac misery, a ferocious humour…no one can remain indifferent to its power, its resilience of ideas and its range of language * Sunday Times *
Deliciously toxic, acidly funny * Washington Post *
There is a great sense of danger in Edward’s work, and you never quite know what’s going to happen next… I think what is one of the most pronounced ingredients in his work is mischief – Harold Pinter
Scorching and exhilarating * New York Post *
The verbal sparring and violence of Albee’s early masterpiece remain astonishing, even frightening, yet bitterly, horribly funny…a classic play * The Times *
An extraordinary classic that still packs a punch * Independent on Sunday *
A brilliantly original work of art * Newsweek *
