Waiting for Grace Reviews
Broadway World- Recommended
"...Theatre Planners presents the world premiere of WAITING FOR GRACE, an award-winning comedy by Sharon Sharth, as a guest production at the Odyssey Theatre, directed by Lee Costello. Centering on a woman who wants to have it all, a great career, marriage and children with the perfect husband, but just seems to waste her life with men who don't want what she does. And when she finally meets the right man, what if her fear of abandonment prevents her from ever accepting she has finally found the right man?"
LA Splash- Recommended
"...While the star, Sharon Sharth, was amazing, Bob Telford, who played over 5 roles, deserves kudos, too. Pamela Dunlap also goes from overbearing mother to professional counselor."
Will Call- Recommended
"...Sharth is wonderful as the charming neurotic, who grabs our attention as we silently cheer for her. Babcock is exceedingly handsome and perfectly cast, but has a habit of frequently lowering his voice to a whisper. The seasoned ensemble in multiple capacities is first class and Director Lee Costello never allows a dull moment to creep onto this stage. The play's script has won a number of awards but this Odyssey production is a world premiere. It ends soon so don't wait too long for Grace!"
Stage Raw- Somewhat Recommended
"...Grace's journey is relentlessly one-note, despite a talented ensemble, the seamless pacing furnished by director Leo Costello and designer Pete Hickock's highly workable set. Her courtship woes are ever-present and exclude any other activity in her life. By the middle of Act 2, the analyzing and re-analyzing of her trials become a bit deadening, despite her amusing malapropisms, the often hilariously understated delivery of Dunlap's therapist and the comedic yin-and-yang offerings of her parents."
