"In Closer, Patrick Marber has created a brilliant exploration into the brutal  
anatomy of modern romance, where a quartet of strangers meet, fall in love, and  
become caught up in a web of sexual desire and betrayal. Closer is being hailed  
as one of the best new plays of the nineties, and as the London Observer noted,  
it "has wired itself into the cultural vocabulary in a way that few plays have  
ever done." - The Sunday Times

"(A) powerful, darkly funny play about the cosmic collision between the sun of  
love and the comet of desire. (...) The key element in pornography is the absence  
of love. What's new about Closer is that it's a play about love that's fighting  
fiercely not to become pornography -- or a play merely about lust, about appetite."  
- Jack Kroll, Newsweek
