Presse : "For all its harrowing power, 'Eclipsed,' headlined by the Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o, one of the most radiant young actors to be seen on Broadway in recent seasons, shines with a compassion that makes us see beyond the suffering to the indomitable humanity of its characters." Charles Isherwood for New York Times

"It’s a common lament that there are no good roles for women. But Danai Gurira, a playwright and actress known as Michonne on 'The Walking Dead,' has packed this harrowing, albeit sometimes heavy-handed, 2008 drama with five of them." Joe Dziemianowicz for New York Daily News

"Nyong'o loses herself utterly in the searing and stunning play 'Eclipsed,'... also marking the important Broadway bows for playwright Danai Gurira and director Liesl Tommy." Mark Kennedy for Associated Press

"The show hits the sweet spot for the serious New York theater crowd — the ideal audience for this intense drama — that often feels overlooked and underserved on Broadway." Marilyn Stasio for Variety
