"She’s the MVP in a show of MVPs, especially [when] she goes toe-to-toe, full-on girl fight with her other character, Ma Ferd. It’s riotous and shows the awesome dexterity of Higgins as a comic force."

- DC Theatre Scene

"Tess Higgins is a riot. She makes inspired choices throughout — a subtle shrug here, an unexpected line reading there — and brings frantic commitment to the Act 1 finale, which asks her two characters to fight for the same space onstage."

- The Washington Post

"Higgins creates a great caricature of the greedy politician...a brilliant performance in the act one closing number, in which Higgins channels two characters at once. She jabs, strangles, pokes, pulls – and screlts – as she duels with herself onstage."

"As good as Broadway veteran Nancy Opel was...in New York...Tess Higgins is even more fun here, especially in her deliciously demented portrayal of the evil mayor."

"Tess Higgins as Kat is a star-quality comic actor who here displays a gift for millennial angst."
