Autor Anya Reiss
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2011
An unruly comedy asking if age equals maturity. Dana, Ruth, and Jess down shots to console the heartbroken, to comfort the anxious, and just to pass the time. Jess's dad, Jim, invades the party with just as much recklessness as the girls. As the vodka bottles are emptied, it becomes high drama.

Recenzii

"…Award-winning young playwright Anya Reiss has an ear for realistic, compelling, amusing dialogue. Reiss won awards for her debut play Spur Of The Moment. Her second really is The Acid Test. With Reiss among the leading group of young contemporary playwrights, the future looks rosy."—Official London Theatre Guide

"It has wit and heart, and much of the dialogue is disconcertingly authentic…Adept at capturing the cadences of post-adolescent chatter, Reiss also knows how to probe the most raw emotions." 4 stars—The Evening Standard

"Like Reiss’ debut, The Acid Test is full of humour, acute observation and accurate perception. The dialogue is as powerful and sharp as a vodka cocktail, and the tensions between generations are excruciatingly convincing…entertaining and occasionally moving."—The Stage

"The second play, they say, is the hardest. But Anya Reiss more than fulfils the promise she showed last year, as an 18-year-old, with Spur of the Moment… Like its predecessor, Reiss's play proves she knows a thing or two about the pervasive effect of parental discord on the young."—The Guardian

"Reiss displays a real gift for high quality sitcom dialogue…Reiss clearly has a future…"—whatsonstage.com
