Reviews...
"On the posher side of town, the wealthy Mottram family schemes to stymie Peter's election. They include Lady Mottram (Melissa Maxwell, who is deliciously villainous and imperious), the steely matron who despises anyone that reeks of Socialism.” - Talkin' Broadway
"Melissa Maxwell has us rolling as the Edwardian battle-ax Lady Mottram…” - Theatermania
“...Melissa Maxwell scores highly as the domineering Lady Mottram…” - theaterlife.com
“...haughty Lady Mottram, given an imposing presence by Melissa Maxwell.” - New York Stage Review
"The star of this production is Brighouse’s playwriting itself, followed by Stephanie Klapper’s casting of the women’s roles: Melissa Maxwell as Lady Mottram, Sara Haider as her daughter Gladys, Amelia White as Peter’s mother, and Madeline Seidman as Peter’s fiancée are all pitch perfect and grounded in this world without a false moment." - Stage and Cinema
