PRESS QUOTES:

 

“Alicia poured herself and her comic soul into a very tight pair of jeans. She was as charming as she was alarming. I left feeling shocked, entertained, thoughtful and happy that I have had none of these problems – NOT!”

— Diana Prince, with Broadway Producer Stewart Lane

“Ultimately, laughter culminates in compassion rather than a mindless hangover. Dattner’s act is thoughtful, hilarious, and very brave. She offers up intimate detail from her sexual resume, and reveals secrets of her desires, flaws and insecurities. That takes guts, and I admire Dattner her courage. Her act drives home a touching and beautiful message: to love and appreciate people because of their fears and insecurities. Amen!”

— Ken Kaisser, Theater is Easy

“Dattner is smart, funny, entertaining, talented and full of energy. Dealing with addictions, while serious, can be funny and still be enlightening. The confluence of a great writer with a talented actor can bring out the depth that comes with the desperate actions of an addict wrapped up with self-effacing humor.”

— Ray Morgovian, OffOffOnline

“Alicia’s honesty, charm, good writing and high energy make this one a winner.”

— Leslie DiLeo, Hi Drama
