"Director Evren Odcikin grabs and holds our attention with wit, humor, and flair. His five superb actors deliver jewel-like characters who fill the stage with fascinating life at every moment."
—Theatrius
"Odcikin has cunningly elevated the subtext of playwright Jordan Tannahill's crafty script: This is also a play about the performances we all enact in everyday life, the flimsy veils of sometimes hypocritical civility we hang between our gut feelings and our social interactions."
—Bay Area Reporter
