Reviews
Praise for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead : "Very funny. Very brilliant. Very chilling. It has the dust of thought about it and the particles glitter excitingly in the theatrical air . . . This is a most remarkable and thrilling play. In one bound Mr. Stoppard is asking to be considered as among the finest English-speaking writers of our stage, for this is a work of fascinating distinction." --Clive Barnes, New York Times "A masterpiece, not unlike Shakespeare's plays; it's artfully, imaginatively written, multidimensional, and hilarious." -- New Yorker "A coruscatingly brilliant, endlessly thought-provoking masterpiece." -- Wall Street Journal "In making Rosencrantz and Guildenstern . . . Stoppard mixed the poetic melodrama of Shakespeare with the doom-laden minimalism of Samuel Beckett and topped it with the slapstick of the Marx Brothers." -- Rolling Stone "A tour de force . . . Fascinating . . . A triumph." --Roger Ebert "Astonishing -- a youthful prank bursting with theatrical mischief and literary flair." -- Washington Post " Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead . . . has proved its sturdiness and power to endure . . . It is, after all, the most performed, most studied, most earnestly analyzed and strenuously anatomized of all Mr. Stoppard's plays: the foundation of his international career and the inevitable starting point for anyone wanting to appreciate him." --Benedict Nightingale, New York Times "Full of philosophizing, nuances and complexities . . . [An] absurdist tragi-comedy . . . Stoppard's . . . writing is pristine." -- Charlotte Observer "After the first night of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead at the National Theatre in 1967, Tom Stoppard awoke and found himself famous. It's still a delightful shock, every few years, to be reminded how brilliant and engaging this play remains." -- Independent (UK)
