Critics Review
“The essential Barney—a soul of extraordinary generosity and talent. He gave of himself in a way that no other man I have known has done. His obsession was theatre—good theatre, good South African theatre—and I truly believe he would have sacrificed himself to that cause. He certainly gave his whole life to it.” –Athol Fugard
