Chicago Reader- Highly Recommended
"...Ii-Epstein, a former addict turned playwright (and coartistic director of Nothing Without a Company), knows well the world she describes. Her dialogue is peppered heavily with Hawaiian pidgin English and drug slang, and her characters feel ripped from life. This quality is accentuated by the raw, moving performances director Rachel Slavick coaxes from her ensemble, led by Marie Tredway's subtle but compelling take on Honey Girl."

"...Overall, the show makes for a fun night of theater. I was left in a state of emotional confusion remembering the joy of the party I walked in on but also recalling the second act. The show plays on both the tragedy and the joy of the human experience well. For that, it’s well worth a few hours of your time."

"...The entire ensemble is extremely strong, and in this viewer's humble opinion, one of the main reasons to see this show, led bravely by Rachel Slavick. It should be noted that every actor in the production is in the luau in the first act, and is improvising as their character the entire time with audience members, seamlessly and effortlessly."
