REVIEWS

"Absolutely charming and impressive Remarkably heartwarming Characters are whimsical delights that spur the broadest smile" ~ TheaterMania

"Original, brash and bursting with theatrical energy The irreverent but charming characters and occasional pokes at tradition in Looking at Christmas make this play a very good gift" ~ NYTheater.com

"For audiences seeking a Christmas holiday show with a sly and witty New York point of view, Looking at Christmas is just the ticket. A real treat" ~ Theaterscene.net

"You would have to be a major league Grinch not to be charmed A sharp, contemporary New York holiday story A delightful mix of sentimentality and cynicism that is the perfect representation of Christmas in Manhattan. If you're looking for a holiday show with a slight edge, you will love Looking at Christmas. It has the feel of a new Christmas perennial" ~ Connecticut News
