“It's the cast, however, that lends distinction to the inconsistent material. It's a treat to see dependable musical performers like Ziemba, supple in both vocal and dance duties, and golden-voiced Danieley put to good use even if their characters' rekindling romance remains peripheral.” in Variety by David Rooney “Ziemba, Danieley, Racey, McCormick, and Sabella nicely exploit their triple-threat talents in service to the greater good.” in TheatreMania by David Finkle" Karen Ziemba, as a lyricist who's got to sing, belts 'em out like a young Ethel Merman.” in Hollywood Reporter by Laurence Vittes |

"Ms. Ziemba, like Ms. Monk, is an appealing and polished veteran who never makes a technical misstep. But the original, star-defining wit that both actresses have shown on previous occasions never manifests itself here." in "The New York Times" by Ben Brantley “

"Ziemba, a Tony winner for "Contact," has the multitasking musical command (she sings, dances and acts with unostentatious grace) that makes her ideally suited for Georgia, the lyricist who's more comfortable behind the scenes but better than anyone else in the spotlight." in LA Times by Charles McNulty |

"The spoof of torch songs performed by Monk spotlight her wit, Ziemba shines leading the musical numbers, and Danieley receives two songs that show off his beautiful voice." in TheatreMania by Jonas Schwartz photos © Joan Marcus and Kirk McKoy |
