"A little gem of a comedy. Morogiello clearly knows his milieu. He even gives himself a glancing mention, as a persistent supplicant whose scripts Jim tosses straight in the trash" ~ Sandy MacDonald, TheatreMania
"Witty. It specializes in the sort of insider's winking jokes that make audiences feel clever" ~ Frank Scheck, The New York Post
