"It's a performance that will make flint-hearted critics weep in their seats and put dollar signs in the eyes of commercial producers." - Cameron Woodhead - The Age
"It's a bold presumption and it works in spades. I was presented with a show that was fast paced, hilariously funny. I was caught up in the magic of theatre, simply watching characters play out their story with gusto and truth. I was watching real people performing at the top of their game... It's pure stage magic, so don't miss seeing this show." - Julie Houghton - Classic Melbourne
