Life X 3

Praise for the London premiere of "Life X 3 "by Yasmina Reza: "[Reza] has perfected the technique of combining light comedy with the play of ideas . . . ["Life X 3"]is clever, it's elegant, it's entertaining."--"Charles Spencer, The Daily Telegraph""[Reza] is the most exported living playwright on the planet, a woman whose culturally rich background has given her real insight into the melting pot of today's society . . . "Life X 3" ruminate[s] on man's place in the universe . . . Her amalgamation of laughs with smart arguments and flashes of raw emotion is a crowd-pulling recipe . . . [Her] social satire is often cryingly funny."--"Kate Bassett, The Independent""Alan Ayckbourn meets Edward Albee . . . The writing is sharp, the observation spot-on."--Georgina Brown, " Mail on Sunday""The Grand Chaos Theory . . . is applied to a Parisian dinner-party in Yasmina Reza's delightful . . . comedy of manners. "Life X 3 "is designed to show how chance, with its impact upon our actions and behaviour, changes everything . . . A wicked pleasure to behold. Miss Reza is a star-reporter at the sex-war front and a thorough mocker of male pretensions."--Nicholas de Jongh, "The Evening Standard""Adroitly translated by Christopher Hampton . . . "LIfe X 3" amounts to pleasure-in-triplicate."--Paul Taylor, "The Independent"
