"So charming you want to take him home to mother immediately!" The Age, Melbourne

"Clever, observant and high on the laughs." Beat Magazine, Melbourne

"The material is sparklingly original- often breaking genre conventions for a splash in the shallows of literary criticism and poetic philosophy- well structured, energetically performed and peppered with lascerating little one liners and funny jingles." - 3Weeks - August 2009
