"A winning combination of light satire and romance?[This] smart, sweet play suggests that the endorphins released by garden-variety love may be the most reliable mood-enhancing drug on the market today." - NY Times. "A sharp, tenderly sardonic new comedy?[Fodor turns] a classic boy-meets-girl romantic structure into a thornily funny image of today's screwed-up world." - Village Voice. "Fodor sets up an amiably idiosyncratic world with empathy and skill?A timely examination of the continual value of treating yourself right." - Time Out NY. "Ideal entertainment for neurotic people living in anxious times?Fodor has a way with flawed characters, and her lovers here are so warmly drawn that we feel we have a stake in their fate." - Variety. "Just what the doctor ordered?If laughter is the best medicine, maybe health plans should cover the ticket price." - NY Post.
