In Butterfly Kiss "Nagy captures the texture of a life and writes short, vivid, often disturbingly erotic scenes...it's a play that leaves me proclaiming Nagy a writer of real talent" ~ Guardian
Disappeared (winner of the Mobil Prize,1995) - "A piece that gets right under your skin...There's no neat solution to Nagy's conundrum, just a fog of fear, despair, and most remarkably of all, a final mirage of escape. Spine-tingling stuff" ~ Daily Telegraph
The Strip "kaleidoscopic and hugely accomplished dissection of fate, love and chance" ~ Independent
