ANONYMOUS certified reviewer June 29, 2019
This fun one-act was the perfect amount of fantasy and reality of the life between a Mother and Son. I wanted this to be so much longer than just one hour. It was so much fun! You could tell the amount of hard work put into this show. ... full review

This was great! I'm not a huge musical theater afficionado, so some of the deeper cut references went over my head, but I thought all the performances were terrific and the audience participation at the end was a ton of fun.... full review

Charming tribute to Broadway musicals as told through the angsty relationship of a man trying to strike it out on his own and his clingy mother trying to recapture her past.... full review

If you like musicals then you’ll enjoy this. The script is fun and very sketch comedy (which is how it began) but i dont think it could ever work outside of Fringe. Not just because of the abundance of “Meta” Fringe references but mostly because the show holds no weight outside of its heavy handed love letter to the show Gypsy. The actors commit and have lots of energy (even sometimes if they dont know where to direct it) and it was definitely a nice hour long shut-off for us to just have some fun. ... full review

If you love musical theatre, you will LOVE this show. The performances are charming, bold, fun, and effervescent, and the audience interaction at the end makes the whole night.... full review

This play is a whirlwind of fun and laughs! The writing fires off jokes like a machine gun and the entire show is excellently cast. Many people have remarked how great this show is for musical theatre fans, but I can count on one hand the amount of musicals I've seen live and I still had an amazing time! The show stopping final number is a joy to watch and the entire theatre joins together, something that I think should happen much more often.... full review

I was drawn to this show knowing it was written by Tony Foster and he did not disappoint. This clever tale that seems to be a continuation of the little weekly romp that won the Sacred Fools Serial Killers competition was a bundle of laughs. The precise direction from Marisa O'Brien reminded me why I love theater. So many moments are handled with care and the mash up of Foster and O'Brien is a party filled with laughter and Broadway show tune heaven. ... full review

Great fun! I saw their preview and had a blast. Tony Foster's writing is incredibly snappy, delivering consistent laughs throughout. His writing is also the perfect springboard for headliners Demetris Hartman and Amir Levi. Both showcase huge talent and have the audience in the palm of their hand the whole time. No absence of comedic and musical ability there! And the show's fantastically fun closing number is the perfect conclusion to this romp of a redemption story. This show is a must-see for any broadway fan!... full review
