Head Critic for The New York Times, Ben Brantley stated:[4]
“Tasty, bite-sized comedies. Nimbly directed by Neil Pepe. Theatergoers nostalgic for the urbane, mind-teasing divertissements that once flourished Off-Broadway should leave happily hungry. A dream team!”
Melissa Rose Bernardo from Entertainment Weekly stated:[5]
“Boisterous and fun! Coen couldn’t ask for a better production than this Atlantic Theater Company treatment!”
Linda Winer from Newsday Stated:[6]
“Gleeful, thoughtful and darkly loopy! These new, lean pieces mark the serious stage debut of a shrewd and weirdly endearing comic voice.”
