Press:

"In “Tail! Spin!,” a clever comedy revisiting hanky-panky-in-high-office scandals, we are reminded how frequently sexual misbehavior and political posturing have clashed, to mortifying effect, in the lives of elected American officials in recent years. . . .] The production, which opened at the Lynn Redgrave Theater on Wednesday, comes trimmed in mock-patriotic trappings that accentuate the contrast between the, ahem, dignity of office and the luridness of the scandals. A sturdy wooden lectern is a central prop, and a giant bald eagle insignia, looking strangely lascivious, leers from the backdrop." 

-Charles Isherwood, The New York Times

"Zippily staged by Dan Knechtges (“Lysistrata Jones”), the evening looks at each of those fools in succession, as a bronzed eagle sporting prominent masculine pecs looks on from the background." 

-Elisabeth Vincentelli, New York Post
