Bond Plays 1

Edward Bond is the most radical playwright to emerge from the sixties … the most savagely powerful dramatist writing today … Bond’s plays cannot be ignored (Independent)Saved – The most uncompromising, original and un-English English play of the sixties (Observer); Early Morning – A gargantuan Swiftian metaphor of universal consumption (Observer); The Pope’s Wedding – This bizarre and unclassifiable piece is an astonishing tour de force for a first play, and if it comes to that, would be an astonishing tour de force if it were a fifty-first … Bond is an original (Bernard Levin, Daily Mail)
