SILENCE! THE MUSICAL
Read what the folks are saying about Silence! The Musical in Los Angeles:
"In Silence!, a killer silliness ensues...a madcap cast and shameless daring make it outrageously fun." —Charles McNulty, L.A. Times
"The songs are so hilarious, you might wonder why Jonathan Demme didn't go the musical comedy route in the first place." —Elina Shatkin, Los Angeles Magazine
"Silence! The Musical is transgressive, hilarious, and entertaining. I had more fun with this show than with almost any Broadway-bound show." —Alyse Wax, FearNet
"Bolstered by Jon and Al Kaplan's infinitely clever music and lyrics and a sharp-witted book by Hunter Bell, Silence! transfers Jonathan Demme's 1991 horror masterpiece The Silence of the Lambs to the stage in a riotous adaptation punctuated by dead-on performances, gleefully raunchy humor, and elaborate song-and-dance numbers." —Kurt Gardner, StageMage
"The impending Book of Mormon notwithstanding, it’s unlikely that Angelenos will see anything more scabrous or ham’s-holiday funny than Silence! The Musical at the Hayworth Theatre." —David C. Nichols, backstage.com
"Bloody hilarious...[the] music and lyrics are tuneful and clever." —Terry Morgan, laist.com
"From the moment the show begins, it is apparent that this is going to be a comic masterpiece." —Noel Leon, Daily 49er
"[Christine] Lakin is simply incredible, nailing the (exaggerated) accent and other little tics of Foster's performance while being tasked with a LOT of dancing and go-for-broke outbursts; she reminded me of Anna Faris more than once, with her gift for physical humor and complete lack of vanity when it comes to getting the laughs." —Brian Collins, Badass Digest
"Silence! successfully transforms the most memorable and disturbing scenes into wildly uproarious and catchy, sometimes slightly vulgar, show tune numbers." —Brigit Harvey, Daily Bruin
