Recenzii
"Blazingly original...adds another mysterious chapter to a career that was full of infinite mystery." - The Stage
"David Bowie's parting gift to the world - and what a rare and mesmeric testament this is...it’s all unforgettable. I sat rapt throughout' - Independent
"Captivating, tense, and emotional... shows like this don’t come along very often." - Radio Times
"Lazarus...continually emphasizes the surreal over the explicit at nearly every turn... It’s all strange and wonderful and heartbreaking and funny in alternating measure." — Rolling Stone
"[A] poignant remembrance as well as a satisfyingly chewy work in its own right." - Financial Times
"Gripping… [a] strangely poetic piece of music theatre... there’s nothing at all conventional about this. It is festive. Riotous. Dionysian. Wonderful." - BritishTheatre.com
"Like David Bowie himself, this is a show that defies definition. It's both all and none of a musical, a play, a gig, performance art, philosophical meditation, a fever dream, a collective trip into the unknown... strangely fascinating and fascinatingly strange." - Broadway World
"Fascinating to watch... [a] spectacular study of a pained outsider’s search for peace." - Guardian
"Bowie's ghost is movingly present… the play feels part celebration, part wake; sorrow and death fug up the theatre like some sort of paranormal mist." - GQ Magazine
"Intriguing and nuanced... a fitting memorial to one of the giants of popular culture." - Gay Times
"Outstanding... full of wild energy, magical effects and overwhelming music." - WhatsOnStage
"Enda Walsh's book is full of longing – for love, for peace, for release from earthly ties – while songs from Bowie's iconic catalogue, an astonishing legacy spanning four decades, are reimagined in a new context whilst somehow retaining the potency they once exerted during the course of a life richly lived. No jukebox musical, this… [the] entire creation is infused with the spirit, the quirkiness, the capriciousness of Bowie, and Walsh could not be more in tune with all of it." - The Arts Desk
