Hey! Dancin'! Hey! Musical! presented by Factory Theater at Prop Theatre

Chicago Tribune - Recommended

"...Nathaniel Niemi's flamboyant Doug, beset by gaydar-deprived female fans, Scott Sawa's sweet doofus Pete, who ruefully notes that he is "TV ugly – which is like regular ugly but more humiliating" and Eunice Woods' mystical Princess (who purports to channel messages from the Purple Rain genius himself) add extra heaps of comic delight to this surefooted time capsule of disposable pop culture."

Time Out Chicago - Highly Recommended

"...Pynchon, Beyer, McKenzie and new director Matthew Gunnels manage the precarious preposterousness quite well. McKenzie's new numbers, mostly composed for appropriately shoddy prerecorded synth, are luscious for aficionados of the era, even if Factory's cast isn't always up the vocal task. But then that's not really what these comedians are here for. The likes of Grant Drager as cable-access host Randy Massingill, Mary-Margaret Roberts and Amanda Roeder as a pair of dance-show aspirants and Scott Sawa as a nerdy Prince Charming in waiting win us over despite shaky voices. And Eunice Woods, as a female worshiper of Prince, and Nathaniel Niemi, as the guy who's too ambiguously gay for the era, milk their supporting roles for about ten times what they should be worth."
