Highly recommended for those who love … great musical theatre."
"…A well-crafted, witty musical comedy… a sparkling valentine

"It plays only on Monday nights but elicits a Sunday kind of love."

--Peter Filichia, THEATREMANIA.com

"A delicious evening of entertainment."
Fern Siegel, HUFFINGTON POST

"Every New Yorker should go to the Oak Room at The Algonquin Hotel at least once… there will probably never be a better reason to go than Glimpses of the Moon."
--NEW YORK PRESS

"Tajlei Levis has spun her book and lyrics on Wharton's solidity and, together with John Mercurio's deliciously apt music, fashioned a charmingly successful trifle of a musical…Glimpses of the Moon is delightful."
–-Eugene Paul, THEATERSCENE.net REVIEW

YAHOO BROADWAY: TWO ON THE AISLE

"I loved it!"

"A dizzy delight of a musical… a champagne flute of sparkling songs."
"Glimpses of the Moon is deliciously old-fashioned but refreshingly original at the same time."

"Um, hello producers, did I hear the phrase "Off-Broadway transfer?""


"A one-of-a kind New York experience… Don't miss getting a glimpse of this moon!"
-- Bixby Elliot, Broadway.yahoo.com

"Glimpses of the Moon has already bested most of the current crop of musicals for civilized entertainment"
Michael Dale, BROADWAYWORLD.com

"As soon as we hear composer John Mercurio's first Gershwinian piano chords and see Lisa Zinni's authentic-looking costumes, we settle comfortable into the 1920s, and the bright-eyed cast and almost Wodehouse-like plot do nothing to dispel the spell."
Jon Sobel, BLOGCRITICS.org

"The performances are Broadway-caliber, and director Marc Bruni's rich theatrical expertise is evident." -
Dana Lang: OFFOFF ONLINE

"Glimpses of the Moon is SWELL"
-Tunis McCall, BLOGCRITICS

"Levis and Mercurio's score is smart and charming."
BORADWAY WORLD: ALL THAT JAZZ

"The show's creators- aided by Lisa Zinni's era-celebratory costuming and Denis Jones' cleverly compacted choreography—conjure such a charmed world, it seems a pity it must evanesce like the bubbles off a gin fizz."
--Sandy MacDonald, THEATERMANIA.com

"With its slick direction, polished cast and agreeable storyline, it's hard to imagine Glimpses of the Moon not finding another home after its run is over at the Oak Room."
--Paulanne Simmons, NY THEATRE-WIRE.com
