Alex Miller — Theater Critic

This one is just pure fun, a musical comedy that dishes up a laugh every 10 seconds or so without worrying too much about how. Puns galore, P&P humor (poop and penis) and folksy-dorky assessments of everything from cliché sayings to small-town romance.

At the center of the story, Kimberly is a decent person with a heavy burden she’s reluctant to share with her new friends. Carmello is tremendous in the role, juggling the mind of a teen with the body of an octogenarian and landing just right in the middle. As her newfound friend, Seth, Gil creates a character so sweet and pure that we completely believe how he’s able to draw Kimberly out and allow her to share her pain.
