brain

"a glorious salute to the great American musical, with the same satiric air and sexy style as The Producers and the same nostalgic feel as Little Shop of Horrors"
-- Orange County Register

"Science doesn't get much more fictionalized than in the silly sci-fi musical The Brain From Planet X."
-- Los Angeles Times

"A funnier script and premise you’ll never see. The songs rock!"
-- What The Butler Saw

"The Brain From Planet X is a delight from beginning to end, fast moving and constantly fun. Writer/director Bruce Kimmel has lovingly mined every cliché for maximum laughs, and keeps his excellent company moving at locomotive speed. See it – or risk annihilation from the planet!"
-- Blade Magazine

"Straight out of the B-movie genre of that same time period, The Brain from Planet X definitely pays tribute to those movies in a way that is refreshing, witty, smart, and funny."
-- EDGE Los Angeles

"Its sensibility is pleasantly goofy and tongue-in-cheek, and its sense of humor is self-deprecating, ridiculing not only 1950s sci-fi flicks great and small but the musical theatre genre as well. Its characters know they're in a show and don't mind letting us in on the joke."
-- Back Stage West
