"Fitzgerald's analyses concentrate on themes, affects, and representational strategies. ... The tone of Fitzpatrick's Rape on the Contemporary Stage is more matter-of-fact. ... both studies offer substantial contributions to the field of theatre and drama."

"Graduate students, scholars and professionals interested in gender representation in media might find this book useful to better understand how gender representations manifest themselves in media such as theatre." (Morgan Danker, CBQ Communication Booknotes Quarterly, Vol. 51 (3-4), 2020)
