...listeners laughed heartily, if a mite uneasily. Dryer's caricature bore more than a passing resemblance to the 750 reporters and 300 photographers who descended on Los Angeles last week to watch the Rams and Pittsburgh Steelers collide in Super Bowl XIV. For seven days, the National Football League virtually immobilized the journalists in a thick public relations syrup. Upon arriving they were given a designer carryall, a briefcase and enough press handouts to reconstruct a tree.

...Winthrop players do take a little while to warm up to their roles and the first few minutes of the play are a mite slow, but from the time Cromus (Mathew Gatson) appears the pace picks up, the rude puns start flying and everyone starts to loosen up. Julie Martz and Amy Gould as Doto and Dynamane have some nice moments together as they steadily abandon their resolve to die for "Master" and start appreciating the reasons to live presented by the hunky soldier boy.
