"Justin Jacobs was a terrific Bob Boles, made all the more vivid by the fact that though Jacobs projected the full range of the character's weird intensity, it never felt overdone. Jacobs seemed to have a knack for grasping the real theatricality of the role, and as a singing actor, I would love to hear his talents used again."

"Justin Jacobs leans hard into the French-accented comedy with joyful results."
