Klappentext zu „Oleanna “
In a terrifyingly short time, a male college instructor and his female student descend from a discussion of her grades into a modern reprise of the Inquisition. Innocuous remarks suddenly turn damning. Socratic dialogue gives way to heated assault. And the relationship between a somewhat fatuous teacher and his seemingly hapless pupil turns into a fiendishly accurate X ray of the mechanisms of power, censorship, and abuse.

Pressezitat
"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. Newsweek
