Ben Brantley’s review of Richard Maxwell’s People Without History appeared in the NY Times March 24:
Swimming Across the Rough Sea of History
Sing the news, o balladeers. Richard Maxwell has put on chain mail again, boldly returning to the 15th-century battlefield where once he lay trounced and bleeding. Now his banner, proud and tattered, flies there under the name of “People Without History,” his new play at the Performing Garage in SoHo. A land that no one expected Mr. Maxwell to claim is his . . .
