Toni Tresca — Theater Critic

But it’s Tavis Kordell’s Daphne who steals the show. A nonbinary performer bringing remarkable nuance to the role, Kordell charts a compelling journey from anxious sidekick to radiant leading lady. The show doesn’t use contemporary labels, but it’s clear that Daphne’s experience is one of gender exploration. In a pivotal scene, Daphne sings to Joe that "Daphne is the best part of me, oh yeah, Daphne is who I love to be." It's a moment of genuine power, and Kordell grounds it in truth.
