"Stunning ... a masterpiece."--Time
"A truly moving work ... an undeniably affecting emotional core and a shimmeringly black sense of humor ... essential for anyone interested in the forces that have shaped this influential writer."--Ben Brantley, New York Times
"Another great play ... a dazzler ... a triumphant return to the town that feted and lionized the young playwright three decades ago."--Wall Street Journal
"A powerful and moving work, his most emotionally affecting play since Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf? ... A memorable trinity of women ... a passionate encounter with mortality."--Newsweek
"Fine and authentic ... Three Tall Women restores, or confirms, Edward Albee as one of America's leading playwrights."--New York Observer
