“DIRECTOR S.C. LUCIER HAS SHAPED A HEROIC, BIG-HEARTED, AND FINELY DETAILED MIGHTY MUSICAL FABLE DRENCHED IN CLEAR VISION AND PERFECTLY EXECUTED STAGING.

“I THINK IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT LUCIER HAS SUCCESSFULLY DONE JUST THAT BY TAKING PART IN THE CREATION OF A WORLD SHE WANTS TO SEE, A STRONGER QUEER AND HUMAN COMMUNITY THROUGH BOTH HER WORK AND HER DAILY LIFE. IT’S ALSO VERY CLEAR THAT SHE IS SUCCEEDING IN SAID CHILDHOOD GOAL, ‘TO DO SOMETHING THAT MATTERED.’” - JANA PRAGER, TILLT MAGAZINE

"STEVE ROMAGNOLI'S SKIP TO MY LOU CURRENTLY PLAYING AT THEATER FOR THE NEW CITY, IS A DRAMA OF IDEAS, BUT IT'S ALSO A DRAMA... THE AIR OF CONSTANT AND LITERAL PHYSICAL MENACE IS SOMETHING THAT THE DIRECTOR S.C. LUCIER ARTFULLY UNDERSCORES THROUGHOUT THE PRODUCTION....” - HUFFINGTON POST
