Romantic, Entertaining, Delightful, Quirky, Funny

See it if you enjoy the intimacy of off-Broadway; you want to leave the theater feeling happy; light-hearted little musicals do it for you

Don't see it if you need deep, profound theater; you like big, splashy Broadway musicals

Resonant, Great writing, Funny, Entertaining, Clever

See it if you like some relationship humor and enjoy watching people's lives unfolding

Don't see it if you expect high quality musical numbers (the singing was barely ok) and could have been largely avoided.

Critic Reviews (10)

The New York Times
July 31st, 2019

"Rita Rudner in a Sitcom With Songs. This new 'comedy musical' is lesser material than she deserves, but Ms. Rudner delivers an innocuously pleasant evening."

Time Out New York
July 22nd, 2019

★★ "The nearly two-hour musical reminds us why sitcoms are under 30 minutes long...Most of the show is so obvious and inoffensive that it rarely induces smiles, let alone laughs. The underrehearsed cast struggles to sell hoary shtick and telegraphed punch lines in between country-tinged songs."

★★ "'Rita Rudner's Vegas-Themed Show.' The comedian's innumerable comic gifts are squandered in this musical misfire."

Theater News Online

"Even when Rudner is delivering lines (to Tom or, oddly enough, the audience) that seem to come straight from one of her stand-up routines, her skill with this kind of observational humor is hard to resist."

CurtainUp
July 22nd, 2019

"With astute veteran comedian Rita Rudner as writer and co-star, you get a laugh-filled couple of hours but a predictable rollout of familiar one-liners and a sit-com plot."

TheaterScene.net
August 2nd, 2019

"The play's set-up is about as familiar as room service when two total strangers in their 60's are assigned the same hotel room in a Vegas hotel and no other rooms prove available in Sin City. What happens proves as predictable--and gooey, sentimental--after the first few minutes."
