Reviews

On "Heroes and Saints: " "Heroes" is the sort of unexpected discovery that refreshes . . . a potent script �which� transcends the protest genre �by� penetrating to the heart of the human experience.

On "Shadow of a Man: " �Moraga� crafts a euphonious, musical medium out of the everyday language, the kitchen table talk of her people. . . . She �is� interested in the intricacies of sorrow that shape individuals, and thus a people.

This play has the resonance of a soul on fire, eager to share the flames. �It is� a burning of old ideas, an incineration of outdated attitudes, but most especially a burning of passions.
