"The play's tone is broadly comic in a sit-comish kind of way. In fact, Lillie Mae, who is blind, displays the earthiness and audacity of The Golden Girls' Sophia Petrillo. Much fuss is made over her salty language and her penchant for groping men inappropriately. A little of this goes a long way.

And she wisely avoids creating a villain, allowing the audience to understand all the perspectives and develop their own call to action."
