Press Reviews

"A touching, funny and delightfully antic study of what happens when two eccentric (and immensely rich) spinster ladies, who have lived in isolation for 25 years, are suddenly confronted with an “outside world” they find difficult to comprehend, much less accept. “…Prideaux has given life to two of the most charming eccentrics since Marsha and Abby Brewster poisoned all of those lonely men in Arsenic and Old Lace."
