"Expertly directed by Margaret Shigeko Starbuck, the production is rich and fully realized."
-StageRaw
"Imagine my surprise when two razor sharp female wits and one hilarious empress of 11th century Japan, trotted out saucy, a la CLUELESS banter, skillfully articulated and elegantly styled. It was clear, UNRIVALED is masterfully done."
-Gia on the Move
"A sharp, fast-moving romp in which the four actors pull it off hilariously with their perfect timing and expressive physicality...Don't miss it!"

"The [cabaret] seating is meant to immerse the audience into the action as it happens around us...the use of audience interaction...gives the somewhat problematic text a feel of novelty and relevance."
