A comedy that probes the human heart as it exposes class distinctions.
“…a glass full of joy and immense fun, sprinkled liberally with the sexy time, served on a platter of wonderful, accessible, and timeless source material…”
–Allan Mackey, On Stage Ottawa
“I loved the moments when Dorante (Daniel Briere) and Silvia (Stephanie Izsak) disguised as their own servants, try to show how indifferent they really are to each other even though both have been smitten with the love bug from the first glimpse[…]Snezana Pesic’s costumes were fitting and her set shone and glittered like the perfect site of one of Offenbach’s musical masterpieces.”
–Alvina Ruprecht, Capital Critics Circle
