"追风筝的人 is an example of The West End doing what it is loved for: a marvellous
story, exotic and involving, beautifully staged and gracefully performed. 它会打开
a window onto a different world and, yet, resolutely speaks about life in Britain
就这一点而言,美国也是如此. With bracing humanity, 追风筝的人 examines
the consequences of deception, betrayal and tradition. 总是放风筝,不
matter where you live or who you are - and chasing them will help release your soul." ★★★★
