This elegant masterpiece,
already translated in eleven languages, is this year a success all over Europe.
It has the quality to become a modern classic.--
DIE WELT (Germany)
All the humor of the twentieth century theatre steps out from this comedy: a
sort of "commedia dell'arte" re-written by Samuel Beckett, a sort of
tractatus philosophical written by Dario Fo.
--DIARIO DE NOTICIAS
(Portugal)
But Lunari's plays are alive. They are light, but not in the way this word is
generally meant (the opposite of deep, lacking any dramatic intensity and human
insight). Their syntactical structure is light, the language is fluent and free
with a captivating development, with an entertaining fabric and dialogues rich
with subtleties. Nothing in them is predictable or obvious. To each situation
corresponds a theatrical invention. His latest play, Three on the Seesaw, is an
amazing machinery made of wonderful stuff. I read it all in one go, heartily
laughing ..... It's one of those rare theatrical works for which its worth our
getting dressed, taking a taxi and finding ourselves in Milan in a crowded house
.....-- Dario Fo,
1991.
