Reviews
“Levine has written a tight and succinct holiday farce. A delightful alternative to your repetitive, run-of-the-mill Christmas Carol, Christmas Story, Wonderful Life, etc. This dainty and quaint little comic nugget of a farcical gem is indeed a dose of just what the doctor ordered.”
—Theatre Bloom
“Not just a wild and wacky comedic ride but a tasty treat for those seeking something fresh and new for the holidays.”
—StageScene LA
“If you are looking for a comforting fairy tale with a happy ending, this will fit the bill. It’s just sheer, zany fun.”
