Reviews:
"The show is peppered with terrific actors. Nick Sandys kills as the show's campy villain, Black Stache." Chicago Reader
"As Black Stache, the outstanding star of this production, Nick Sandys... can add another brilliant performance to his resume. He’s superbly witty and undeniably clever in the play’s standout role. Richly eloquent, with a velvety baritone voice that caresses every word he speaks, Mr. Sandys ricochets between studied casualness and wildly energetic." chicagothetrereview.com
