Two Shakespearean Actors (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780881458503)

Nominated for Tony Award, Best Play

"Illuminating, enlivening, a sheer joy."
James Christopher, Time Out

"Sharp characterization and magical theatricality."
John Peter, The London Times

"Containing statements like 'American actors for America ' and the ugly sounds of a nationalist riot, the play holds a disturbing mirror up to a world where fundamentalist bigotry is on the increase... It is Nelson's achievement to have done this through a drama that is also quite exhilarating."
Paul Taylor, The Independent

"This is a must for theatre lovers; or as the actor sitting next to me put it, 'Now I know why theatre has me by the throat.' Precisely "
Liz Gilbey, What's On

"Mr Nelson's work is partly about the glorious chaos of play-making but also chases much bigger themes. On one level, his play is about theatre as a metaphor for post-colonial arrogance... On another level, it is about the power and mystery of acting itself."
Michael Billington, The Guardian
