"David Mamet has raised outrage to an art form. . . .
Oleanna is...a scorcher. The woods are burning, and all of us are being seared in the fire."–
Boston Globe "Mamet's clenched fist to the gut–and intellect...a vicious and timely riff on sexual harassment and political correctness. Pinter, Albee, Miller. They're all looking over Mamet's shoulder."–
New York "Wholly absorbing...a virtuoso performance...As if ripped right from the typewriter, it could not be more direct in its technique or incendiary in its ambition. . . .
Oleanna is likely to provoke more arguments than any other play this year."–
The New York Times "Our foremost master of the language of moral epilepsy."–
