"Vance Smith's cast invests the characters with some real emotional heft underneath the comic desperation."
—Kerry Reid, Chicago Tribune_

"Under Vance Smith’s smooth direction, not only are potentially one-dimensional characters granted depth, but each moment is simultaneously stretched and pulled for ultimate comedic potential."
—Sarah Terez Rosenblum, Centerstage.com_

"The militarism and loopy menace of Steve Spencer's script--given a brisk staging by Vance Smith for Black Sheep Productions--calls to mind Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove"
—Zac Thompson, Chicago Reader
