"A Mother Lode of Comedy! Start your engines up for the little dynamo, Jennie Fahn, because she's one mutha worth visiting. …Jennie Fahn pulls a wealth of characters from her obligatory stage trunk. Playing Everymother in various guises, Jennie Fahn is a chameleon comedienne… She sets you up with comedy, comedy, comedy, then subtly throws you a curve ball of emotional disruption that surreptitiously opens up the tear ducts. Then whammo, back with the humor, full throttle… Fahn is a quadruple threat: able to sing, dance, act and do comedy. She and director Larry Sousa have put together a fast-paced evening exhibiting all of the above with smooth transitions from one to the other… The audience was made up equally of men and women, old and young, and all were equally entertained… She simply makes her audience feel like family." - Canyon News
"YOU MUTHA! Is A Must See! Fahn manages to transform herself into one mother after another, somehow resonating with each and every member of her audience… Although the joy and frustration of being a mother is forefront in this stellar performance, having a mother is also gloriously represented… The script is laugh-out-loud funny, the musical numbers not only amusing, but lyrically astute… Whether you have a mother, are a mother, or think you might want to be one, see this play. Get a babysitter. I guarantee you won't regret it." - Santa Monica Daily Press
"Like the special recipe in your mother's cookbook, Fahn's writing and performance adds a spice of emotion to a large dose of comedy making for a flavorful dish that everyone who is a mother or has a mother can relate to." - Tolucan Times
"Laugh 'Til You Cry, Wheeze and Cough! A natural comedienne with a gift for mimicry and characterization, Jennie draws us into her world and we willingly go wherever she takes us... Her comments and observations are right-on and her personal experiences are universal… Not everyone can make you laugh one moment and really feel and think in the next and this one woman can do it all." - Archive
"Fahn is a bundle of machine-gun energy who rat-tat-tats her audiences with rocket-fire precision, stripping personas as quickly as Cher switches her wigs… She's bare, she's rare - and she's totally aware of her mission." - Sherman Oaks Sun
"Fahn's writing and performing dazzles! Fahn is a tiny giant." - Canyon Crier
"From diapers to dating, Fahn broadcasts her experiences in nonstop, no
holds barred vignettes. She jokes, jests, mimes, mimics, dances,
juggles ideas, philosophizes, and shares her innermost feelings and
fears about being a mother. It's sassy...solid...sharp!" - Backstage
West
"Fahn is undeniably an excellent performer; she commands the stage
shifting with ease from song and dance to standup to character
monologues..." - LA Weekly
