REVIEWS
A "knockabout farce that channels Noël Coward and Michael Frayn" ~ Chicago Tribune
"Wickedly clever ... Ruhl's unique, breezily elegant dialogue is fully present, as is her pleasingly loopy logic" ~ Variety
"Sarah Ruhl delivers a brilliant comedy that aims for big laughs and hits its target" ~ NY Post
"Suffused with warmth and humor. Sarah Ruhl frothily whips together romantic comedy and backstage farce in this lively comedy about a pair of actors who find life and art mixing together when they rekindle an old romance during rehearsals for a play" ~ NY Times
"In the smart, rollicking Stage Kiss ... passion and fidelity engage in a kind of elegant pas de deux. ... The play manages to be both wholly original and instantly recognizable ... with its combination of hilarity and trenchancy" ~ The New Yorker
