"Jeremy Dobrish's delightful new comedy combines a Grimm's fairy tale with two contemporary stories, which begin with a man planning his own wedding and a woman who is made a partner in her law firm before her husband is. Eight actors in dual roles segue easily from comedy to seriousness, from farce to realism and the piece brims with goofy charm. Three cheers for all involved..."
The New Yorker

   "...crafty intermingling of folklore, musical comedy and soap opera.
   ...another lighter-than-air vehicle on which to float an evening of stylish daffiness.
   adobe productions resist categorization; THE HANDLESS MAIDEN can count among its inspirations the work of Stephen Sondheim, Rod Serling, Sid Caesar, Walt Disney and even Agnes Nixon."
