Trade Review
An omen of the new century * Evening Standard *
Harshly, wittily, Shopping and Fucking connects commerce and pleasure in graphic modern terms ... Ravenhill is one of the most arresting talents to have arrived in the British theatre during the 1990s * Financial Times *
Plunges you into a world of disposability, disconnection and dysfunction, where relationships to be trusted have to be reduced to transactions ... Strong stuff * Independent *
A contemporary classic * Sunday Telegraph *
A theatrical phenomenon * Daily Telegraph *
