Stage Scene LA
"Ashley Moniz and James Caleb Grace are dance standouts as Beatnik Guy and Girl (and more), and emerging talents Lucas Blankenhorn, Jamir Brown (Clive, Mayor), and Carlin Castellano complete DDHWWPDT?’s multitasking ensemble to whiz-bang effect."
Stage Raw
"Sierra’s portrayal of Carla is just magnificent, oozing passion as she sings and dances. Her voice is strong, yet delicate and beautiful."
La Mirada Blog
"One of the highlights of the musical is Steven Booth’s performance as Walter Paisley. Booth brings a likable charm to the character, making him both sympathetic and relatable, even as he descends into madness."
Stage And Cinema
"The well-cast ensemble members all have great comic timing. Mr. Booth has both charm and pipes. Ms. Sierra’s incredible voice has a beautiful belting tone, blending perfectly with Booth."
Theater Mania
"With Vanessa Sierra as the dynamic female lead … a gripping singer, skilled dancer, and endearing performer, she brings the show to life in each of her numbers, particularly her earlier-than-11 o’clock number 'I’m Moving On.'"
BroadwayWorld
"The swiftly-paced show centers around the antics of its title character, sculptor Walter Paisley (played winningly by Steven Booth), a literal starving artist whose day job is as a lowly waiter."
