“PACINO PROWLS THE STAGE with Leonine power. Nobody reaches a boiling point with more gleefully righteous ferocity, a facility he – and we – can still count on.”

“A MASTER AT WORK! Al Pacino has always gravitated toward bad guy – those Shylocks shunned by society – finding the warm, beating heart that escapes everyone else’s notice. DAVID MAMET LOVES WRITING SAVAGE DIALOGUE, AND AL PACINO LOVES DELIVERING IT.”

“One of America’s GREATEST ACTORS. One of America’s BEST LIVING PLAYWRIGHTS. China Doll is a strongly wrought story of considerable moral complexity, one that will hold your attention all the way to the brutal end. Not only is the premise involving, but Mamet once again coins the bright, hard utterances that are his trademark. I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN.”

“IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP WATCHING. Director PAM MACKINNON keeps the tension building as the walls slowly close in around Pacino’s character.”

“If you’re looking for STAR QUALITY get thee to the Schoenfeld Theatre on Broadway for a LIVING, SHINING EXAMPLE of it.”

“BRILLIANT. David Mamet’s rhythmic vigor and piquant imagery are THRILLING. Christopher Denham is PERFECT.”

“A SLAM DUNK”

“PACINO TAKES FLIGHT”

“It’s a GREAT JOY to watch Pacino HOLD THE STAGE!”
