“The show itself seemed very successful in its appeal to the full house audience that surrounded me; an excited woman behind me averred “That was simply the best, the absolute best show I’ve seen” as we huddled out the door. There seemed no lack of laughter through each vignette. A fun production.”

The Village Voice (Reviewed by Andy Probst)

“Comedy and commentary intermingle pungently…It’s comic…a bit angry, and highly satisfying.”

The New York Post (Reviewed by Frank Scheck)

“For a self-professed heterosexual, Matt Morillo is sure in touch with his feminine side. It might be easy to dismiss his Angry Young Women in Low-Rise Jeans with High-Class Issues if the young women at a recent matinee didn't consistently whoop with hollers of recognition and delight….it does have some undeniably funny moments, and it clearly resonates with its target audience.”

New York Cool (Reviewed by Shareshten Senior):

“Angry Young Women In Low-rise Jeans with High Class Issues is a must see for any Sex and the City fan…. captures the unexplainable yet undeniable differences between men and women…. The play is so well written…You cannot imagine the chaos…you have to see it… one hilarious eighty-five minute play.”

“An evening of straight-up, sitcom-style comedy that boasts an outstanding cast, some fine direction, and many funny moments…Morillo is a talented comic writer and director…one thing Morillo does know is comedy and he directs with a superb sense of timing and pace…all too-amusingly familiar to anyone who’s ever been in a long-term relationship.”

New York Cool (Reviewed by Corey Ann Haydu)

“Left the audience both laughing and appalled…embraces all that is crazy, neurotic, hypocritical and vulnerable in our lives…teases without criticizing, challenges without preaching and looks at gender difference without determining a winner in the gender wars…Matt Morillo has written and directed a show that entertains men and women alike…Somehow he has managed to capture private female thoughts and intimate moments with such accuracy that you have to wonder if he had a personal peephole into the ladies’ room at his local bar…the pace, momentum and vigor were unfailing and it was a sexy and shocking night at the theater.”

The Daily Telegraph (Reviewed by Alex Lalak)

“This new work from New York playwright Matt Morillo is not afraid to ask the big questions. Are men and women really so different in matters of love? Do fathers influence their daughter’s choice of a partner? Can a woman call herself a feminist and still wear a G-sting?...Morillo gets to the core of the most pressing issues plaguing our post-Sex and the City society…Each of the skits is witty, cheeky and all the more hilarious because of characters and experiences that are instantly recognizable…Morillo doesn’t attempt to glibly answer the question, but rather throws it open…The female characters are beautiful, complex, full of opinions and wavering temperaments. The men are baffled, and the frequent bursts of knowing laughter from blokes in the audience suggest Morillo has drawn his material from common experiences.”

“Matt Morillo hits the g-spot in his play Angry Young Women in Low-Rise Jeans with High-Class Issues, …It is a play that will enrage as equally as it will entertain as it fearlessly examines relationships between men and women and women and their own bodies…Thought-provoking and funny, this is a must-see for the angry young woman in all of us who wants to reclaim her power.”

Australian Stage (Reviewed by Jack Teiwes)

“A very funny show indeed…If the opening-night audience response is anything to go by, it would be a great show for a bunch of girlfriends to see together, and there’s plenty for the lads to enjoy too.”

Australian Stage Online (Reviewed by Helen Barry)

“It’s bold, brash and unashamedly straight shooting, as it explains in no uncertain terms exactly why the women of the world have had it up to their teeny-weeny G-strings with their lot in life. No, it’s not a boring feminist rant that will leave you cold. It’s an irreverent and gut-busting bunch of comedy vignettes that explore the truth about chicks, sex and the annoying realities of female grooming…From the opening moments it feels like the Cosmo sealed section grew a mouth and limbs and trotted out onto the stage… takes a no-holds-barred approach to pretty much everything when it comes to talking about sex…American playwright Matt Morillo’s pithy and sharp dialogue is smartly handled by director Byron Kaye, who knows when to back off and when to crank up the volume. It’s nice to see that this New York production has made a smooth cultural transition to the Australian stage.
