Keith Varney in Submissions Only

from Submissions Only

“The buoyant, snarky workplace show... timely on a number of levels... Varney's book is often quite funny ... the cast is terrific in selling their roles. And they’re vocally impressive to boot — particularly Varney, whose voice seems big enough to fill a stadium. The score needs no fine tuning. It's melodic and inventive, and the lyrics fit in well with the sassy energy of the show... You hate to take delight from someone losing his job, but I’m certainly glad bring us this enjoyable new musical..”
Review of I Got Fired at Curtainup.com
"Really, out of all the numbers, only one number I needed to burn out of my head with how awful it was – a jump-the-shark moment level of awful as Mess sponsors an Asian baby (don’t ask), sings to it and it appears in puppet form and sings. When this was happening, I double-checked…no, I was not on crystal meth"
