The Trackers of Oxyrhynchus was voted one of the best 100 plays of the twentieth century by the National Theatre Millennium Poll:
'One of the most brilliantly original things the National has ever done.' Sunday Times
'A wonderfully witty, provocative piece of theatre.' Guardian
'Harrison has created a glorious piece of total theatre.' Time Out
'Square Rounds is clearly a work of genius . . . It's so brilliant you leave the theatre in a kind of exhilarated pessimism.' Boston Globe
'It would be a stony soul who didn't salute Harrison's reckless theatrical audacity . . . A stunningly original piece of theatre.' Guardian
'Let's hand it to Tony Harrison: when it comes to taking theatrical risks, he has no rival.' The Times
