"There is no question, Balls is a production that comes to play. If by play one means throw down (spiritedly and with a sly giggle) on how women have had to fight, and not always win, the battle for gender progress."
/
"a captivating, visceral spectacle from end to end" / "the physicality of the performance is staggering...it’s a thoughtful inventory of where we are and where we came from in terms of gender equality, and the play is just plain fun."
