"Nicky Torchia's depiction of David,the wizened 11 year -old who analyzes situations with an acumen and poise that are unfortunately often the lot of those who experience loss at an early age-and here the writing is especially penetrating- is a wonder to behold. His stage presence and aplomb doubtlessly foretell a long and successful Broadway career."

"Eleven-year-old Nicky Torchia evidences easy-going naturalness in a very solid performance as son David. Neither angelic nor bratty, he’s real and sympathetic, and sings quite well. His work is bright and on target, he’s always in character with his attention and reactions and line readings, scoring laughs with exit lines like “Good luck with this one,”
eying Mom’s latest weirdo guy."

whose impressive performance as David shows a range and skill level far
beyond his 11 years."

"Nicky Torchia is darling as David. There is a sincerity and ease about Torchia that is amazing; as David, he is a believable, frustrated boy who just wants to be heard by his mother."
