    “ Any community theatre performer has all had a Shakespeare production that has gone askew, but nothing like this! Kelly McBurnette-Andronicos has raised the stakes and has delivered a one act that would steal the spotlight, or maybe send one crashing down, at any festival. 'We know what we are, but know not what we may be,' but I do know that this play is a winner. ”

    “ A hilarious short! If you've ever seen "The Play Goes Wrong," it has flavors of that, except SHAKESPEARE! This would be an absolute hoot to watch onstage! ”

    “ Such a fun play! It has some physical comedic bits and would be a good project for a stage combat consultant to work with props outside of the usual. I'd love to see this staged! ”

    “ Kelly McBurnette-Andronicos has crafted a play that any comedy or Shakespeare lover has to read! This play is chock-full of hilarious moments from start to finish. Not a single second is wasted! There is plenty of humorous uses of cursing to go along with a slew of Shakespeare references that any theatre-lover can understand and enjoy! It's fast-paced, fun, and allows for actors and directors to take a variety of avenues to give the audience an exciting and entertaining performance. ”

    “ All the world's a stage alright. And in this case, a very funny one. Kelly McBurnette-Andronicos takes us on a journey through the Bard's world with some heavy duty mashing up, resulting in an hilarious performance. Would love to see this performed as a warmup to the real thing. ”

    “ Hilarity Ensues! Wonderfully funny farce of a Shakespeare mash-up that is brilliant and easy to produce! What more could a theatre want? Very very smart work linguistically too! And so so so so so much fun! ”

    “ This is a vibrant and hilarious play with masterful moments of physical comedy embedded into it! The janitor is a gem and deserves an enormous amount of applause. The playwright has written a show that no theatre would regret producing in their festival, truly a pleasure to read, actually watching this must be an insanely joyful ride! ”

    “ This is the definition of pure delight. It's hilarious on the page, and while I can imagine it wonderfully in person, I am pretty sure I don't even have the slightest inkling of how funny this would be to actually see. The image of the janitor holding a plunger as a scepter is one that will live with audiences forever. Absolutely hilarious, one of the funniest short farces I've ever read. ”
