“MASTERPIECE… Not since Oliver Stone has a writer/director brought forth such a plausible conspiracy theory as Levatino does in this show… DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW – run, don’t walk.”

-Examiner.com

“SUNNY AFTERNOON presents thought-provoking storytelling at its best with a cast that could not be any more perfect… the play is bold, meticulous in detail, flooded with character, and challenging in every respect.”
-Broadway World

“Serving generous portions of comedy and intelligent banter before indulging in the theatrics of conspiracy. It’s a smart look at a controversial tale out of American history.”
-Bitter Lemons
