Published Reviews

"Jeeves Intervenes is a champagne cocktail of a show, as bright and engaging as a garden party in May."

Chicago Tribune

"There is mistaken identify, ridiculously improbable circumstances and foolishness of the highest order... Think one part early Noel Coward, plus one part late Oscar Wilde."

Citizen-Times.com

"...Humor that is as wry and dry as James Bond's shaken martini."

carolinacurtaincall.com

"An engaging romp through a Wodehouse classic..."

Sun-Times News Group

"A master work of drawing room comedy..."

Chicago Critic

"...comedy that's funny every way you look at it."

Third Coast Daily

"Vivid wordplay and snappy, sugar-coated insults... Margaret Raether's droll adaptation is as dry as a well-made martini and equally potent."
