'Taking its title from William Carlos Williams's poem 'Complaint,'
Night is a Room is one of the more audacious jaw-droppers in recent
memory. Strange, surprising, often funny'
*New York Times*
'Primal and tragic… Night is a Room faintly recalls Albee and
Pinter’s cryptic, psychosexual puzzle… Desire, genetic destiny and
the destructive force of love are the topics here, ones that
transcend class.'
*Time Out New York*
'Written with a kind of ecstatic lyricism, Night is a Room also
demolishes a sexual taboo.'
*Variety*
