“One of those depth charge plays [that] has lasting relevance [and] can triumphantly survive any test of time…. The story is simple, but the resonance that Fugard brings to it lets it reach beyond the narrative, to touch so many nerves connected to betrayal and guilt” ~ N.Y. Post
“Fugard creates a blistering fusion of the personal and the political” ~ N.Y. Times
“This revival brings out [the play’s] considerable strengths” ~ N.Y. Daily News
