Editorial Reviews

With M. BUTTERFLY David Henry Hwang joins the first string of American playwrights. This is an audaciously imaginative play, big in conception and theme, and a satisfying instance of a talented writer hitting full stride.

Variety

Of all the young dramatists at work in America today, none is more audacious, imaginative, or gifted than David Henry Hwang...

New Yorker

It will move you, it will thrill you, it may even surprise you. It is a play not to be missed, and it is a play once caught that will never be forgotten.
