“Ace designers (costumes by Gregory Gale, hair and wigs by Tom Watson and sets by Beowulf Boritt) mockingly evoke the sights, sounds and smells of the era with an affection so pure and an aesthetic so archly on-target that the familiar is freshened by a festive parade of gumdrop-colored lingerie and pungent grunge. When somebody pulls out a four-pack of Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers, the audience roars as if at a punch line of supreme perceptiveness.”
~ Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
“Beowulf Boritt's witty set is a jumble of iconic signage -- the Chateau Marmont, an Angelyne billboard, Jack Daniels ads -- that re-creates Los Angeles' Sunset Strip in the '80s. That setting frames Dupree's Bourbon Room, a fictional venue festooned with bras and panties of groupies past.” ~David Rooney, Variety
"This Off-Broadway transfer does provide its Memorex-induced pleasures - often embedded in Beowulf Boritt's clever set and prop design"
~Thom Geier, Entertainment Weekly
“The design is first rate; Beowulf Boritt has had the luxury to deck out the entire space with a set that extends far past the proscenium and through the theater.”
~David Gordon, Theatremania
“The rock club set by Beowulf Boritt encapsulates the sunset strip in a single space, from its period Angelyne billboard and strip club signs to bar walls full of rock memorabilia.”
~Terry Morgan, Daily Variety
