Don't see it if you don't like cutesy shows with uneven acting. The women fare better than the men. Best of all was the dog.

See it if Want a twist of a puppy in a traditional "Boy Meet Girl" story. Lindsey Vanwinkle's a standout. She makes the most of the B material.

See it if you enjoy a small-scale romantic comedy; delightful romp through a fun story; some unexpected laughs; an intimate musical - change of pace

Don't see it if you want a fancy-schmancy production -- this show is on a tiny stage with a curio cabinet approach to set design.

Don't see it if Much more suggestive and deeper than I expected.

See it if you like romantic comedies that are somewhat predictable but wear their heart on their sleeve and are ultimately charming

Don't see it if you are attracted to hip or edgy material. You can see the ins and outs of this plot coming a mile away. But it's also genuinely sweet.

See it if like to see how a dog can be used to bring people together. cute love story. like musicals

Don't see it if you expect to see a dog throughout. only come out at the end. don't like small productions

See it if your tv's broken and you like unimaginative sitcoms.

Don't see it if you like clever stories and actors who can pantomime a dog. Until the real dog entered, I had problems imagining where it was.

Also I have to admit I love good lighting. The colors were warm beige with red and blue down lights. Definitely did not evoke the Hamptons!

I was sitting in the front row, wearing a cream-colored sweater. So much light spilled over my seat that I felt uncomfortable.... Read more Read less

See it if You like small venue musicals that are predicable and "cute" - sort of. Must love dogs...

Don't see it if You have the option of seeing something else that day/night.

See it if you like the cliché rom-com musical. 3/4 of the cast is really talented, especially the two leads. Half of the music is really good.

Don't see it if you can't tolerate a really un-even book. Also don't see it if you don't have an imagination of your own, this show REQUIRES it.

See it if you can get a free ticket.The dog walker is great, but she's not enough to save this show. The best friend's misogyny is excruciating.

Don't see it if you want an intellectual, challenging, or even a completely enjoyable night out. This is fluff, and not even the fun kind.

See it if will feel satisfied with one well-acted character with some dimension (Miranda), in the midst of 3 flat ones; like romantic comedies

Don't see it if you can't get past an overly stereotypical chauvinistic best friend character (fine acting, just completely unlikeable); want any depth

Also why introduce a real dog at the end? totally ruined the illusion / the puppy i was picturing in my head... Read more Read less

See it if If you like cute romantic and funny stories. Excellent acting and loved the concept and the funny bits. Real dog at the end made my evening.

Don't see it if You don't like small theaters and productions and are not into romantic, funny and obvious storyline. No real dog until the ending.

See it if You like fluffy, cutesy, and cliched musicals. Nothing new here. Best part of the show was (spoiler alert!)...the dog.

Don't see it if ... you have anything better to do. It's mildly entertaining, some earnest performances but overall disappointing.

See it if You love dogs. You enjoy romantic comedy musicals. You don't mind a small cast in a simple yet entertaining musical.

Don't see it if You don't like dogs; prefer something more sophisticated (it's not exactly Cole Porter); you don't enjoy a small musical.

Also Not very sophisticated, but a pleasant and enjoyable evening with a simple but likable score, a good cast and a fun surprise at the end. Running at 90 minutes, it was a pleasant diversion and an enjoyable evening.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if you don't like musicals, don't like dancing, and don't like a truly innovative set that many of us in NYC would like to take home with us.

Also This really is a show you'd expect to see at the New York Musical Theatre Festival. It's 90 minutes long, no intermission. The dog is mimed (invisible) and sometimes you can't tell if they are holding it by the neck or where...at the 11:55 spot of the show a real dog enters...who could look at anyone or thing else...talented actors, for the most part...wearing sound mikes in a room that is very small, why an actor should be able to burp in that room and be heard easily. it was fun, and I enjoyed myself...and I left humming the title song.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if If you don't like a little off Broadway or You only like big theatres with big ticket prices

See it if you are down to earth enough to enjoy a sweet musical with great voices on a simple set. you enjoy basic sweet entertainment.

Don't see it if you want a show that will solve the world's problems, or offer great insight on the boy meets girl relationship.

Also This show is partially predictable. There are also a few scenes with a lot of sexual innuendo that are actually very funny. I sometimes enjoy shows that are entertainment for the moment. I don't always need to leave awed by the great message or profound thoughts presented.... Read more Read less
