| What the critics say... |
| Daily Variety "Taylor is stunningly good...delivering an intelligent and vibrant performance... Potent in its raw fury. But it's her rueful declaration of love...and its evanescent depiction of a doomed heart laid bare that stays in the memory." |
| Backstage West "Harvey's moving drama...is enhanced by the glorious Sarah Taylor as Jamie's crusty mother, Sandra. That Jamie and Sandra ultimately save each is the backbone of this play - and rarely has it been expressed so poignantly." |
| Chicago Reader "Played with remarkable emotional fluidity and impressive vocal and physical technique by Sarah Taylor...a mercurial range... Beautifully played ...Taylor sings with poignant simplicity." |
| San Jose Mercury News "Sarah Taylor...[is] a natural performer..." |
| Backstage West "The dramatic fireworks ignite...the character [is] in the assured hands of Sarah Taylor, who sensitively conveys the plight of a woman fighting long suppressed feelings." |
| Daily Variety "The women impress, with Taylor expressively physicalizing Sandra's struggle between erotic playfulness and self protection" |
| San Jose Metro "The sparks flew and it was obvious that this woman's got presence with a capital P." |
| IN Los Angeles Magazine "Taylor really shines... [and] does a brilliant job." |
| Los Angeles Times "... Particularly the fine Sarah Taylor... Straightforward and in control, Taylor invests the [tone of the play] with a restorative naturalness..." |
| LA Weekly "...Taylor is just grand..." |
| LA Reader "In a scene stealing performance as a marvelously hyperkinetic geek... the mind-blowing Taylor makes [her] moments sparkle." |
| ReviewPlays.com "A gloriously multi faceted turn by Sarah Taylor...[the character's] transformation is a tribute to Taylor's performance." |
| IN Los Angeles Magazine "Taylor gives a performance of tremendous sensitivity and depth." |

| What Sarah's mom says... |
| Over Thanksgiving dinner "Well, I wish these nice reviews paid your bills, but they don't. Why don't you go back to school and get a nice master's degree? How come only some if this is in bold face? Are you going to use this in your comedy? Be nice." |
