Description

"Through the dialogue the playwright's skill is revealed; the dialogue is incredibly witty and full of gallows humor, yet psychological insights abound about the two as well as discussions about whether individuals bear responsibilities for the decisions of their governments." Marie Bonfils, Drama in the Hood "This is must-see theatre, for if the role of theatre is not solely to entertain but to provoke contemplation about our humanity--even if it means assaulting our senses, sensibilities, and assumptions and creating discomfort--then HOSTAGES fits the bill... It is a measure of El Guindi's's genius and craftsmanship that he pulls the audience aboard the excursion." Herbert Paine, Broadway World "HOSTAGES is about our individual humanity and the related concept of fellowship. Echoing, in different ways, works by Sartre and Beckett, El Guindi explores how we survive on our own and how we survive with each other; what makes us ourselves and what makes us--and prevents us from being--free. HOSTAGES ranks as compelling and worthy theatre." Martin Denton, nytheater indie archive "El Guindi's dialogue and humor are sharp enough to cut. These are most exciting roles of the evening..." Thom Taylor, Spectator
