See it if KT Sullivan at her best and that is saying something! Ross ,too, phenomenal. A great evening . If you like Noel Coward or these two great

Don't see it if If you do not like Noel Coward or a biography.

Nicely put together, Entertaining, Refreshing, Clever, Great singing

See it if you love witty lyrics and banter, celebrity gossip and fun. Steve Ross is Noel Coward and KT Sullivan is everyone else. Loved her Garbo!

Don't see it if you want in depth biography or serious reflections on the period and people.

Helen Shaw

★★★ "Reading from Coward's letters and covering nearly two dozen songs, cabaret stars Steve Ross and KT Sullivan pay Coward tribute. Sometimes Ross, the longtime king of café cabaret, is his own tuxedoed self, and sometimes he's pretending to be Coward; an amused-seeming Sullivan takes on all the women."

"There are many ways to spend a sweltering, summer evening in New York City, but few of them will be as debonair, as delicious or as droll as 'Love, Noël: The Songs and Letters of Noël Coward' at the Irish Repertory Theatre."

"I saw 'Love, Noël' with someone from a generation less familiar with Coward's work…Her tepid response…suggests that the once wider…appeal of Coward's material is vanishing. However, if you're someone who knows all the words to 'I'll See You Again,' I suspect you'll appreciate hearing it again."

"In a delightful 90-minute salute to Coward, cabaret favorites Steve Ross and KT Sullivan winnow through a melange of letters and songs to illuminate the man, his friends and his era...Ross and Sullivan are here to celebrate an entire aura of glamour and sophistication personified by this talent."
