"In
some ways, it's their funniest presentation yet... With a musical score that
gives the script bite and zest, the three performers `turn history inside
out and upside down, cramming 1,000 facts into 90 minutes'. By the end they
have given us a nonsensical but hilarious rendition of each major epoch."
Andrew
Warshaw, The Guardian
"Singing
that `history ain't what it used to be' the three-person ensemble put
a deranged spin on the events of the past 1,000 years...
Mixing broad physical humor with sly satire, the three sang, disco-danced and
adopted phony accents and even phonier facial hair to view the highlights (and
low points) of history, from Leif Ericsson to the Y2K bug....
The show was consistently hilarious."
Donna
Freedman, Anchorage Daily News
"The
show, overall, is a riot... Don't miss it. After all, a comedy this funny only
comes along once or twice a millennium."
Patrick
Meighan, New Hampshire Telegraph
"...combining
smarty-pants irreverence with physical buffoonery and street-wise smarts...
it touches greatness"
