"It was absolutely hilarious...Overall, fantastic show.”
“I wasn’t really sure what to think when I booked the tickets, since I’ve never been to such a small or short show before, but it was absolutely hilarious. I loved all the theater specific jokes, and the practical jokes with lighting and sound were fantastic as well. Overall, fantastic show.”

"Truly one of the funniest, wackiest pieces I’ve ever been to."
“I saw this play listed in the Smock Alley’s newsletter and although the title of this play was a huge draw for me, I more or less blind booked the tickets. And it didn’t disappoint. Truly one of the funniest, wackiest pieces I’ve ever been to. The writing was so on the money and the actors were superb.
I guess in the spirit of the festival, the time and space were limited. But they used it wisely and treated us to a polished and professional new piece. The lighting really added to it. I would be interested to see how this would play out on a bigger stage with more resources.
My only regret is that I went alone. I have friends who would love this.”

"...they interacted with the audience in a way that was funny and made us feel included in the jokes."
“Really unique and fun show. The chemistry was there between the actors and they interacted with the audience in a way that was funny and made us feel included in the jokes. I liked that the interactions also weren’t overwhelming for people who arent comfortable with that stuff. I really recommend it.”
