“And then, of course, there is Sally, the nightclub’s chanteuse of the moment, so indelibly portrayed in the 1972 movie by Liza Minnelli. Her come-what-may, sexually adventurous existence reaches a crossroads in her relationship with tender, genuine Cliff — a dilemma that plays out with palpable ache in Talisa Friedman’s performance.”
- Daryl H. Miller, LA Times
“The sweet-voiced newcomer Friedman is a vexed and volatile Juliet, an adolescent whipsawed between love and family duty.”
- James Hebert, Chicago Tribune
“In the standout turn of the production, fetching Talisa Friedman plays Patti, a cheerfully promiscuous innocent about to have her illusions shattered.”
- F. Kathleen Foley, LA Times
