The great theater critic and playwright Eric Bentley has died at the age of 103. Last year I was glad to have the opportunity to tell him how much his work has meant to me. “The Theatres of Wagner and Ibsen” is a classic essay

I read so much of his work. I didn’t always agree, but I was always engaged. This is the person who taught me how criticism matters.Eric Bentley, Critic Who Provoked Lovers of Broadway, Dies at 103 – The New York Times

The great Eric Bentley has left us. Critic, translator, playwright and thinker. I continually poor over his works for insight and guide to how to become a better artist. Eric Bentley was a tremendous artist and teacher and we were lucky to have him for all his 103 year.#ericbentley #theatrelegends
Eric Bentley’s work on Brecht was foundational to my undergrad studies, but I’ll remember him most for the letter he wrote to CU’s Student Homophile League, the US’s first college LGBT group, which I found while processing their papers at the RBML. RIP
