"The set...serves the rather intricate plot well, with balconies and doorways aplenty for all the comings and goings."
- Patrick Thomas, Talkin' Broadway

"Bill English and Heather Kenyon's set design mirrors festive New Orleans, complete with wrought iron balconies and climbing vines."
- Patricia L. Morin, Theatrius

"...[the set] looks like a fun place to immerse yourself with these literally- and figuratively-colorful characters..."
- Charles Lewis III, 48 Hills
