Recensione:

An insistent, unrelenting cry of protest... brilliantly written and darkly funny... this powerful, challenging drama is an urgent, impatient call for change. --BritishTheatre.com

debbie tucker green goes further than ever before in breaking down and reconstructing form, creating a complex work of economic eloquence and gestural clarity, uncompromisingly and brilliantly her own. It's tough, harrowing, and fiercely beautiful... starkly poetic... an astonishing work of art. --The Stage

The thrill of this play by debbie tucker green is partly generated by its passion and partly by its poetry. It is so original, ear and eye-catching... words fly like missiles, beautifully honed, finding their targets, creating a picture of a world where people of colour are constantly suppressed... excruciatingly funny but utterly devastating in its impact. --WhatsOnStage

An intensely smart piece of theatrecraft. Its three components would make total sense in isolation; together they interact in a subtly devastating dance. --Time

An amazingly ambitious epic... has a thrillingly unexpected theatre form and is written in green's distinctive style of reiterative and repetitive punchy dialogues, which here are both emotionally passionate and imaginatively modernistic... raises your political consciousness while expanding your sense of the beautiful. --The Arts Desk

Consisting of three distinct parts, ear for eye is driven by anger at racial injustice. The cumulative impact is overwhelming as tucker green explores the subject's present practice and historic roots... Powerful... left me shocked and stirred at its evidence of palpable injustice. --Guardian
