MICHAEL SHAW FISHER uncertified reviewer June 11, 2014
What a hit!! Oy my sides!! WOMEN is a true delight and I highly doubt anyone will leave the theater without being blown away by the comedic forces of the actors and the reckless wit of the writer. Some jokes are dangerously funny and if you have any reference to LITTLE women or HBO's GIRLS then you will be rolling down the aisles of the Asylum, gasping like you're dying of consumption. I would even venture to say that WOMEN is even more successful, as a piece of live comedic theater, than the TV show GIRLS is as a half-hour comedy. Totally flawless. Everybody was perfectly cast and side-splittingly hilarious, but I'd like to give a special shout out to the actor who played Beth. She KILLED me! A special thanks to the producer/actor Brad... full review

I effing loved this show and I can't wait to see it again. Like really, go go go see it. It's a brilliantly recognizable show with amazing and sharp performers. Also, classic and modern mash up?? That's hard, they're fun but they dont always achieve what "Women" did which had a natural feel, not forced at all despite marrying two different genres. ... full review

Saw this on a whim and I'm glad I did. A fantastic concept and expert execution. I laughed heartily throughout as trope after trope of both Little Women and the HBO series Girls was thoroughly and lovingly skewered by this pitch-perfect cast. Highly recommended!... full review

Wickedly funny and fast. Big Time Little Women fan, so I really got it. Loved the Limes bit. Hilarious. Thanks so much for the laughs. ... full review

FANTASTIC show! Really, really, *really* funny script, and EXCEPTIONALLY well-acted! My favorite Fringe show I've seen thus far. This is one you should rearrange your viewing schedule for, in my opinion. Also, for those who are wondering, I have seen exactly one episode of "Girls," and I still loved this show and "got" absolutely everything. The characterizations and dialogue are pitch-perfect. Alright; I'm going to stop now. Just see it, okay? Okay.... full review

Brilliantly funny show, with many clever moments all the way through. The cast is terrific, especially Abby Rosenbrock and Rachel Lin, both masters of comedic timing. I suspect those two actors could make the phone book funny, but given this smart material they really soared. ... full review

A master class in comedic timing. Knowing nothing about Little Women or Girls, I still enjoyed this show immensely. Absolutely cannot be missed.... full review
ASHLEY STEED certified reviewer June 15, 2014
So far this is my Fringe fave. I have a love/hate relationship with the hit HBO series Girls, but this mashup of Lena Dunham with Louisa May Alcott’s classic, Little Women is nothing but love/love. Chiara Atik’s spot on play takes the main events from the novel and uses the rapid, self-indulgent language from Girls, creating true comedic brilliance. In fact, it’s so perfect that I’m surprised someone hasn’t put the two together sooner. Stephanie Ward’s stealth direction keeps the show at a break-neck pace, ensuring that the momentum never stops as scenes jump from one moment to the next. Although this is definitely well oiled ensemble, the four March sisters Jo (Layla Khoshnoudi), Meg (Abby Rosebrock), Beth (Rachel Lin), and Amy (Lydia... full review
