Jodi Kingsley steals the show as Chantal,
with a performance that sneaks up on you like overage charges at the end of the month. Her comic timing is smarter than the smartest smartphone and her delivery is nothing short of cheeky brilliance. She completely inhabits the satire and delivers it with a custom ring tone of hilarity. -~Chicago Stage Review Jodi Kingsley easily stands out as the most compelling of the group. She manages to humanize an absurdist character, and once you’ve seen that, you start to think that all absurdist comedies might be improved by such a performance ~ Centerstage Chicago Kingsley’s deliciously pompous, judgmental snarkiness could single-handedly drive the show ~ Stage and Cinema |
