"Master Set Designer Brian Sidney Bembridge
creates a sensationally stylized tone and Costume Designer Tonette
Navarro compliments the colors and sleek sensibilities to perfection.
This show looks as good as next year’s iPhone upgrade.
The cast delivers the craziness with a
calculated combination of choreographed restraint and reckless abandon.
Mariana Leite opens the play with a hysterically absurd lip-synch that
sets the stage for unpredictable irreverence. Geraldine Dulex is a
perfectly flirtatious minx as Amelia and Antonio Brunetti is an
idiosyncratic delight as the co-dependant Dagobert.
Jodi Kingsley steals the show as Chantal,
with a performance that sneaks up on you like overage charges at the end
of the month. Her comic timing is smarter than the smartest smartphone
and her delivery is nothing short of cheeky brilliance. She completely
inhabits the satire and delivers it with a custom ring tone of hilarity."
