Broadway.com Review
Really, I promise a real post very very soon, but first, some recent reviews:
Charles Isherwood of the New York Times says "A cute spoof of children's theater, with some truly funny songs and endearingly loopy performances from a cast of just three." His only complaint is that it should be 90 minutes. A better a review than the others recieved, plus our color picture led the article in print. I do appreciate his comment that these are first runs of shows without workshops. Some people don't seem to understand what happens after a workshop.

- "The cast bringing the surreal world to life is uniformly terrific!"
- "Gavin Lewis brings a delirious manic energy to his roles!"
- "Laura Jordan matches Lewis beat for beat with her edgy, hilarious work!"
- "Reed Prescott nearly steals the whole show!"
- "Directed with a sure hand by Dan Fields!"
- "In the capable hands of these young comic minds, it can be just as horrifyingly fun as it sounds!"
