Dealers ChoiceI feel its my duty to proclaim it from the rooftops: this is it, this is the play that will remind you, at the end of a year that has contained too few stand-out new-writing hits and far too many musicals, why we go to the theatre - and just how good it can get.TelegraphCloserPatrick Marbers searing follow-up to Dealers Choice establishes him as the leading playwright of his generation.Independent on SundayOne of the best plays of sexual politics in the language: it is right up there with Williamss Streetcar, Mamets Oleanna, Albees Virginia Woolf, Pinters Old Times and Hares Skylight.Sunday TimesHoward KatzAfter Dealers Choice (1995), his gripping study of self-destructive gamblers, and Closer (1997), a thrilling account of love, sex and betrayal, this third instalment of his trilogy set in contemporary London tackles the biggest themes of all - life, death, God and the human soul. Its great to see a contemporary dramatist wrestling with such material.TelegraphDon Juan in SohoOne of the foremost dramatic chroniclers of modern British life.

If big issues emerge naturally from the action, it is because Marber is writing about a world he knows intimately. Everything feels right. Guardian
