Reviews
'A fresh take on the American road story, filled with people and ideas we rarely get to see onstage... It offers two seriously rich roles for women, each with important things worth singing about... Miss You Like Hell is a powerful example of what musicals do best: explore the unprotected border where individual needs and social issues intermix' * New York Times * 'Miss You Like Hell has a timely political edge, an ethnically diverse cast and a score by a singer-songwriter who knows how to rock. What's more, it's good - really good... Ms. McKeown's score heightens every emotion so skillfully that you'd think this was her third or fourth show instead of her theatrical debut... She's the real thing' * Wall Street Journal * 'America, at this whiplash turn in its history, has to sort out what kind of country it wants to be. Miss You Like Hell makes a tender pitch for the endangered values of understanding and inclusiveness... By the end, it's hard not to be touched' * Los Angeles Times *
Miss You Like Hell makes a tender pitch for the endangered values of understanding and inclusiveness. --Charles McNulty L.A. Times
