An incredible read. So hilarious and disturbing to meet these three characters that are deeply flawed drive each other insane. I know people know the famous line “Hell is other people” but I would posit that the best line of the play is actually the last. After they have driven each other insane, the only option left is to laugh, look at each and say: “Let’s continue.” A particular striking end to an incredible work of playwriting ✨.

Sartre, an atheist, imagines hell. It's got the marks of existentialist despair, and ultimately the hell of No Exit is very earthly: there is no mythical-ness to it, it just is.
Brilliant funny and one that’ll sit in your brain for days after you put it down. Would love to see a production of this play.
Après avoir lu des oeuvres philosofiques de Sartre, cette pièce m'a plu vraiment beaucoup. Outre à la signification profonde de la pièce ('' l'enfer, c'est les Autres ''), les personnages sont tous très drôles.
I love this show especially being a post WW2 story. If you love The Good Place, it is a good play for you!
