"...On one hand, Two Mile Hollow is a succinct parody of familiar white, wealthy dramatic characters and says a lot about how they have dominated literary and dramatic works for years. On the other, it's a mildly amusing comedy with some big laughs. Stray Cat's production has a talented cast who embody their characters with glee. I only wish that (Leah) Nanako Winkler's play were less cluttered, with a message that was clearer. " -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
"......writer Winkler isn’t just skewering the conventions of ‘wealthy whites by the lake’ dramas...she’s setting it on fire. ..The humor is hardly subtle; characters are underlined in extremely exaggerated, heavily executed over-the-top strokes. Winkler is swatting a fly with a mallet. As a result, the play’s message, obvious from the beginning, never develops into what you hope will become a multi-layered satire..." -David Appleford, Valley Screen and Stage (click here to read the complete review)
"...a kind of controlled chaos imbued with moments of farce and sensitivity, clever allusions to literature, and homages to gender solidarity..." - Herbert Paine, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
