NOW EXTENDED THROUGH JULY 16
Peter Marks of The Washington Post calls OSLO “hands down the best new play of the season.” Inspired by the true story of the back-channel talks, unlikely friendships and quiet heroics that led to the 1993 Oslo Peace Accords between the Israelis and Palestinians, OSLO is a deeply personal story set against a complex historical canvas, a story about the individuals behind world history and their all too human ambitions. OSLO is “thrilling, a colossus,” raves Ben Brantley of The New York Times. At this cultural moment when finding common ground is paramount, “OSLO gives us hope” (Joe Dziemianowicz, Daily News).

“Some works of art cry out for large canvases. OSLO is undeniably a big play, as expansive and ambitious as any in recent Broadway history, directed with a master’s hand.”
- Ben Brantley, The New York Times -
“An intricately crafted, beautifully staged, movingly acted tribute to the virtues of optimism, compromise, and conversation. In these dark times, finally some hope and inspiration on Broadway.”
– Jesse Oxfeld, The Forward -
“Extraordinary. Jefferson Mays and
– Jeremy Gerard, Deadline
Jennifer Ehle are insanely convincing. We have observed history in the making and recall how thrilling hope can be.” -
“A madly engrossing wonder. J.T. Rogers’s OSLO turns the negotiations that led to the Israeli-Palestinian peace accord of 1993 into gripping human drama.”
– Jesse Green, New York Magazine -
“Can we make peace with enemies? OSLO GIVES US HOPE.”
- Joe Dziemianowicz, Daily News -
“SO HUMAN and SO FUNNY. OSLO is GRIPPING, COMPELLING, and COMPULSIVELY WATCHABLE. This is what we call drama, and it’s what we live for. So, go, already—LIVE!”
- Marilyn Stasio, Variety -
“A RIVETING POLITICAL THRILLER. OSLO makes a complex historical event feel intimate and profoundly affecting.”
- Jennifer Farrar, AP -
“★★★★! As the world hurtles toward greater polarization, OSLO provides a small measure of hope.”
- Adam Feldman, Time Out NY
