“Palindrome Theatre’s production feels intimate and fresh, and the cast brings good comic timing and bright energy to the increasingly absurd comedy. Evocative original music by Matt Hines underscores the action.” –Austin American-Statesman

“What is probably most surprising about this very funny, utterly charming, and truly sweet production is that the play, in the end, is not melancholy at all. …The further it went, the more I began to smile, until, at the end, I was quite literally grinning stupidly from ear to ear.” –The Austin Chronicle

“Despite the play’s title, Melancholy Play is such a joyous experience that I could not stop smiling the entire runtime. The combination of quirky performances, beautiful, rhythmic language, off-kilter storyline and wondrous music filled me with pure, unadulterated delight. Though it may be only their second production, Palindrome Theatre is quickly becoming a company to watch, pulling in big name talent and producing a production that could be one the top five comedies to hit Austin stages this year.” –Austin Examiner
