Bond Plays

Critics have had this to say about Bond: Plays 2:
Lear: "Bond's greatest (and biggest) play ... it is even more topical now and will become more so as man's inhumanity gains subtle sophistication with the twenty-first century's approach."—The Times
The Sea: "It blends wild farce with tragedy and ends with a sliver of hope ... what makes the play fascinating is Bond's bleak poetry and social comedy."—Guardian
Narrow Road to the Deep North: "His best piece so far ... No one else could have written it."—The Times
Black Mass, written for performance at an anti-apartheid demonstration: "A George Grosz picture come to life ... the only kind of artistic imagery through which to speak of such evil."—Listener
Passion: "Mingles comedy and high anger with absolute sureness."—Guardian
Edward Bond is "one of our outstanding playwrights ... He is already an acknowledged classic."—Plays and Players
