Press Quotes
“In this brilliant magical play, Jay O Sanders tells the story of the Rwanda genocide by bringing us into the hearts and minds of the individual men, women and children involved, removing the distance between us and this seemingly incomprehensible event, letting us see the tragedy through their eyes, thereby reaching our emotions on the deepest level. It is a triumph.” —Doris Kearns Goodwin, Presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize–winning author
“One of the most heart-felt, integrity-filled, and exciting theatrical works it has been my pleasure to encounter. UNEXPLORED INTERIOR is an epic play, but with a terribly personal and emotional core. [This] play is one of the very few plays that I can confidently say matters.” —Oskar Eustis, Artistic Director, New York Shakespeare Festival/Public Theater
“The world never learned from the past, and ‘never again’ became ‘again and again.’ This play gives an historical clarity about Genocide against Tutsi , I hope the world will get a lesson from it in order to prevent more in the future.” —Freddy Mutanguha, Country Director Aegis Trust/Kigali Genocide Memorial
“UNEXPLORED INTERIOR takes you on a journey of Rwanda’s history, I love the humor in the play — it made me able to sail through the tense dark side of the story. A true reflection of life.” —Hope Azeda, Artistic Director & writer, Mashirika Performing Arts, Kigali, Rwanda
