"It’s a rare and heartening experience to get reacquainted, on a quite personal level, with British film star Celia Johnson...You couldn’t really call this production a play. It’s a reading, supplemented with interjections and projections. However, this particular pair brings two extraordinary lives back to life, and you get to share in the intimate memories, amid an audience of rapt listeners. If this is not drama in the classical sense, it comes close enough."

"The epistolary 'Posting Letters to the Moon' may, on the face of it, make one think of A. R. Gurney's 'Love Letters' or Helene Hanff's '84 Charing Cross Road.' But unlike those two memorable plays, 'PLTTM' as 'compiled' by Lucy Fleming, whose mother was the British actress Celia Johnson and whose father Peter Fleming was a travel writer--as well as the older brother of James Bond creator, Ian Fleming--never really tells a story nor conveys what her parents' relationship was like."

“’Posting Letters to the Moon’ isn’t a play. It’s almost the format of a lecture...However, unlike a rigid lecture, this show carries the energy of an afternoon chat over a cuppa...The letters are witty and full of charm, joyous even during the darkest times...My main criticism of the evening is of the music...It doesn't enhance the storytelling...I wish there'd have been more of a complex, dramatic moment with the music, or simply none at all...This is nevertheless powerful storytelling.”

"A slight epistolary play, both amusing and touching…Within the interstices of the letters, filled with obviously sincere terms of endearment that attest to their mutual love, we hear of the kind of everyday activities and events that filled Celia's days, along with comments on the films in she was acting. Laughter strikes now and then, especially when something off-color is discretely alluded to….Most interesting…are the letters describing the filming of 'Brief Encounter.'"

“It is tender, occasionally funny, and quietly hypnotic. And it’s all told via letters...The letters are carefully curated for maximum emotional punch. The duo has a chemistry all their own, which makes this family affair even more touching...What makes ‘Postings To The Moon’ so memorable is their deep love for each other. It shines through on every page...The 'Postings’ tone is self-aware and hopeful. This slyly humorous and genuinely compelling story has us cheering for the Flemings.”

“Through letters the audience gets an understanding of exactly who Celia and Peter were. The correspondence offers insights...Through the use of still photographs and the excellent delivery by Williams and Fleming, the show brings forth not only the feelings Celia and Peter had for one another, but also the dangerous times in which these letters were written...If there is any complaint about the show, it’s that it feels too short.”
