What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Probably the most important piece of political theater of the last decade.”The New York Times

“This play changed the world. Seeing it changed my soul. Performing in it changed my life. I am forever indebted to Eve Ensler and the transformative legacy of this play.”—Kerry Washington

“Spellbinding, funny, and almost unbearably moving… . Written with a bluntness that is nevertheless intensely lyrical, it is both a work of art and an incisive piece of cultural history, a poem and a polemic, a performance and a balm and a benediction.”Variety

“Frank, humorous and moving … a compelling rhapsody of the female essence. Ultimately, Ensler achieves something extraordinary.”Chicago Tribune

“Often wrenching, frequently riotous… . Ensler is an impassioned wit.”Los Angeles Times

“Women have entrusted Eve with their most intimate experiences, from sex to birthing… . I think readers, men as well as women, will emerge from these pages feeling more free within themselves—and about each other.”—Gloria Steinem

“Eve Ensler is the Pied Piper. She is leading women and the world to a different
consciousness of the essence of women.”—Gillian Anderson

“I feel my life has changed. You don’t just hook up with Eve, you become part of her crusade. There’s a corps of us who are Eve’s army.”—Glenn Close
