Rezension zu „Mamet, D: Race “
Scalpel-edged intelligence New York Times Intellectually salacious ... Gripping ... rapid-fire Mametian style ... Deep in its gut, Mamet's new play argues, everything in America - and this play throws sex, rape, the law, employment and relationships into its 90 minutes of stage wrangling - is still about race. Chicago Tribune [Mamet's] exhilarating epigrammatic style broadcasts the will to prevail. New Yorker Mamet lets us see the way sensitivity to the most incendiary topic in our history, as Jack describes race, can breed better liars. LA Times Race is wholly watchable. Gripping, actually. Don't believe anyone who argues otherwise. Chicago Tribune It's black against white, man versus woman in a typically blunt David Mamet straight-talker about the law and discrimination ... David Mamet doesn't mince his words in Race ... an engaging brew of wit, rage, and shifting sympathies -- Kate Bassett Independent 20130601 During a typically provocative 90 minutes Mamet probes the self-conscious, slippery, hostile and patronising ways in which we so often discuss issues connected to race and racial politics. -- Henry Hitchings Evening Standard 20130530 An offbeat courtroom drama ... This twin-investigation structure is ingenious. And both inquiries are niftily calibrated to pivot on the issues of skin colour, sex and exploitation ... Mamet's taut, fraught, nervy dialogue bristles with shocking and hilarious truths about the legal process. -- Lloyd Evans Spectator 20130608
