Director Denise Devin really knows how to keep a late night audience alert, with her fast-paced, no-nonsense in.your.face approach, and the talent is enormous.

The staging is undeniably snappy, and the performers are ready, willing and well-prepared. Still, when the laughs don’t come, all the attendant glitz, razzle-dazzle and slapstick can’t quite conceal the strain.

About the Author: We don’t “review” shows here at the Lemon, meaning that we don’t send out critics to productions who then return and post an original review under the Bitter Lemons mantle – rather we gather reviews from a variety of local review sites around the internet and then form an aggregate score that in turn becomes a show’s LEMONMETER RATING.
