Review
'The greatest virtue of David Edgar's enthralling new play is that it confronts the kind of intractable ethnic conflict that has blown up in the wake of the Soviet Union's demise.... The good news is that The Prisoner's Dilemma is not the mirthless lecture you might have inferred... Edgar's erudition and appetite for major subject-matter have paid off. This must be seen' Daily Telegraph; 'David Edgar is one of our few surviving writers of public plays, and The Prisoner's Dilemma continues his exploration of the reconfiguration of global politics since the fall of the Berlin Wall... Engrossing...' Sunday Times; 'Edgar has valuable things to say about the dangers of America and the West imposing quick-fix solutions - sometimes from 1500 feet in the air' Independent
