This new play (last season at Manhattan Theatre Club) by the 2000 Pulitzer Prize-Winner (Dinner With Friends) is about a novelist who has finally had success with a best selling novel primed for Hollywood adaptation. But can we ever really escape our roots?

- NY Times
"Compelling and diverting! This is one of the most purely enjoyable plays to come along on Broadway in quite a while!" - Clive Barnes, NY Post

The story of a friendship between a San Francisco-based Jewish art dealer and his former business partner, who has returned to Germany as the Nazi Party comes to power.

The play demonstrates how the seeds of prejudice take root in an atmosphere of hatred.
"Good old-fashioned thriller! Packs a surprising conclusion!"

"New York has no richer play!"

It's been almost 30 years since Joseph Papp opened this play at the Ambassador Theater on Broadway - but we promise you it is as funny, outrageous and relevant now. Audiences and critics in over 50 countries have cheered this allegory about totalitarianism which uses as its central metaphor a biology classroom. The teacher is dictator and the audience is the student body.
"Mordant, funny, sometimes subtle and ultimately moving."
- NY Times
"A tour de force for an actress... Part tirade, part political allegory, part expressionist vaudeville show."
- N.Y. Daily News

"The Season's most exciting and original new play! Appallingly funny, endlessly quotable, delicious and wondrous! It is, above all,
about the thrilling narrative potential of theater itself!"
- Ben Brantley, New York Times
"An extraordinary play, a macabre fantasy, a horror ride in some theme park of the mind! This may not be the play for either the
faint-hearted or unthoughtful, but with it McDonagh stakes his claim to being the best English-speaking playwright of his generation"
- Clive Barnes, New York Post
Please note: This play contains scenes and language that some may find disturbing.
