Reviews:
“Stunning, clever…. Jeneffa Soldatic firmly directs her gifted cast in their multiple intersecting roles that asks the audience to really, really pay attention to details. Opening scene has the two married couples, (but not to each other), hook up with the person they just picked up. The four actors very timely overlap their lines in dueling scenes of seduction - one successful, one not so.”
Australian Theatre Company will knock your socks off…. This sparkling, fast-paced play is directed by Jeneffa Soldatic, a member of the Actors Studio Directors Unit, who has directed and developed many award-winning theater productions and films.
“Superbly directed by Jeneffa Soldatic… brilliant… intriguing…
