“An entertainment drolly supervised by director-choreographer Matthew Gardiner. On Misha Kachman’s glitzy set, dotted with palm trees and bathed in the prom-night glow of two dozen disco balls, the cast sings their satirical hearts out.”- Peter Marks, Washington Post

“Young phenom Gardiner and his tremendously talented cast of nine never take the material too seriously and play up the camp value to the hilt.   This tongue-in-cheek approach allows for the end result to be a good one.”- Maryland Theatre Guide

“It's been just a few months since director Matthew Gardiner had me grinding my teeth with rage; now he's got me giggling like a teenager. Something to be said for a guy who can follow up a grim campus-rape drama with a perfectly pitched roller-disco musical...one thing I'm learning about Gardiner is that he's a devil with the details.”- Washington City Paper
