'A vast, rich work of public-intellectual engagement... The values built into this beautifully inquiring play operate outside of common dramatic economies. Kushner's carefully organized labor of love is a spur to the active mind' * Time Out New York * 'Thrillingly ambitious... I walked into New York's Public Theater... genuinely excited to find out what was on the author's mind and left with enough food for thought to last a theatrical winter' * Los Angeles Times * 'One of the most absorbing dramas on the London stage' * Observer * 'Dramatic ambition and intellectual elan' * Telegraph * 'A massively stimulating evening' * Independent *
