Vanessa Redgrave has won rave reviews for her performance in Jesse Eisenberg's new play The Revisionist, BBC News reported.
The veteran British actress, 76, stars opposite Eisenberg in the Off-Broadway production which premiered on Thursday, Feb 28.
Ben Brantley, of the New York Times, said Redgrave's performance "reminds us why she's considered the greatest actress of her generation".
The Hollywood Reporter's review called the actress "mesmerizing" adding, "stage acting doesn't get much better".
The Revisionist, Eisenberg's second play, focuses on a young American writer who visits his older Jewish cousin – a holocaust survivor – in Poland, in the hope that a change of scene will dislodge his writer's block.
