“"Engrossingly hilarious...Odd without being alienating; concurrently out of control but equally tightly scripted; and, unhinged yet astutely observant".”
Hugging Comedians
“Those up for an hour of David Lynchian strangeness will find plenty to appeal. This off the wall menagerie were immensely silly and had the audience roaring throughout.”
