      “On the Razzle puts [Stoppard’s] own distinctive spin on the farce … strewn with wordplays and verbal gymnastics, by turns brilliant and outrageously silly.”

      —New York Times

      “The play’s marriage of bristling intellectual wit and broad slapstick makes a curious, sometimes contradictory and always ingenious appeal to our highest and lowest natures—Oscar Wilde by way of ‘I Love Lucy.’”

       —Los Angeles Times

      Praise for Undiscovered Country

      “A theatrical feast: a play that combines detailed psychology with a portrait of society … it’s a marvelous play because it pinpoints decadence with wit and irony.”

      —Guardian (UK)

      Praise for Rough Crossing

      “Giddy with wordplay and dizzy with theatrical game-playing.”

       —Boston Globe

      “Adaptation in Stoppard’s terms means finding a sympathetic text and using it as a springboard for invention that leaves the original far behind … he weaves an increasingly amazing pattern of verbal misunderstandings, eccentric character development, showbiz spectacle, and sea-going hazards.”

      —Times (UK)

      “Accessible and ineffably charming … Radiant theater.”

       —Chicago Tribune

      Praise for Largo Desolato

      “Largo Desolato in Tom Stoppard’s version emerges as a wonderfully comic and unself-pitying piece … A comic writer of genius.”

      —Times (UK)

      “A bitter comedy. It’s Athol Fugard at his bleakest and Kafka at his most horrifically absurd.”

      —Newsday
