Review of Fences (2016) by Barry Hertz for Globe and Mail — 23 Dec 2016
In Fences, every time a character opens their mouth is an opportunity to savour the playwright’s impeccable ear for language – for capturing the joys and frustrations that come when someone simply tries to say something – anything – about the daily struggle that is life.
It’s as much workaday poetry as it is dialogue and Washington knows better than to dilute it or make it his own.
