...fact, Brown spends most of the time lolling on a central red chaise longue in various postures to suggest the different characters. This simplicity in stage design and action best complements the nature of the play, rather than the later images of Brown spinning among strobe lights accompanied by an echoing voiceover. These special effects detract from the play's strongest point and focus, Wilde's work...

The renewed U.S. saber rattling prompted some bluff calling from unofficial intermediary Randall Robinson, executive director of the TransAfrica, who demanded the Administration give the junta 48 hours to get out.
