In a "Critic's Choice" review, the Los Angeles Times praises The Snake Can's "pertinence, humor and heart" and it's "edgy hilarity." The LA Weekly writes, "Pick of the Week... [The Snake Can] perfectly captures the easy and sparkling conversation-the kind that always resumes midsentence-among three longtime female friends." BroadwayWorld finds the production "engrossing from start to finish... a satisfying evening of intelligent theater," and Performing Arts Live calls it "fun and highly rewarding." Arts In LA says, "The surprise popping out of this production, like the snake out of the can, is its submerged depth."
