Press Reviews

"Recipient of a 1996 Obie Award for Music.   One of the most acclaimed productions of its season, this musical is an enchanting three-character “silent movie opera” based on Abram Room's scandalous 1926 Russian film comedy.   With a score by Polly Pen (Goblin Market) and a witty book and lyrics by Laurence Klavan (Freud’s House, Sleeping Beauty, Gorgo's Mother).   “A delight! First rate! A classy treat! A new work that both honors the original and gives it a sternly funny stage life of its own."

— The New York Times

"Wonderful! A must see! So perfectly done it is almost unfair to the rackety hacks who infest our musical theater."

— Village Voice

"Enchanting! Exquisite! A wholly original piece of musical theatre!"

— Newsday (NY)
