Excerpts from The Sun Press review

"pleases funny bone"

"JCC's well-staged production succeeds in entertaining, thanks largely to Fred Sternfeld's smooth direction and the likeable, talented cast"

"Jeff Klein is engaging"

"Equally good is the redoubtable Myrtle Silverman as his quintessentially Jewish mother and Sheri Levy as his former girlfriend"

"They are well supported by Lori Ann Lesmeister as Isaac's wife and Mark Friedlander and Jeffrey Grover, who skillfully play an assortment of other roles"

Teddi Gibson-Bianchi, The Sun Press 1997
