We all know a "Janey", but this is the first time you'll enjoy the entire hour you are invited to spend with her. Going back and forth between finding her repulsive and wondering whether or not she read (and hopefully "liked") your last drunken facebook post, rsvp: rip (really into partying) will take you along on a dark, high energy, narcissistic bender. This tongue in cheek musical performance will stay with you in its entirety with clever quips, catchy music composition and a star quality in Katie Molinaro that "Janey" wishes she had. ...

I dug this. The performance was very energetic. The music was fun and unique for a one person musical show. The story was actually sad with an enormous amount of comedy along side. I recommend this to any who enjoys comedy, music, dreams, cats, and tragedy. ...

I came thousands of miles to see this show and was not disappointed. Katie bring the full range of emotion her twisted sense of humor and the right touch of pathos to make for a witty commentary on the vacuousness of over indulgence in pop culture.

On stage last night I believed she was really crying. I also saw her every emotion laid bare. She leaves every bit of herself on the stage. Someone more objective than I must agree, as the show's run has been extended. If you haven't seen RSVP-RIP, do....

The show was very high energy; Katie Molinaro gives it her all from the moment she bursts onto the stage. The music and lyrics were fantastic, and the sad (but funny) story of a clueless girl who is incapable of change was a riot. I especially liked how the character appears to go through a full arc, but in the end, learns nothing.
Lots of fun; I recommend it! ...
