 PRETTY LITTLE PICTURES

 

THE PAJAMA GAME

 

"Ziemba displays the good-natured spunk that has enhanced such musicals as CRAZY FOR YOU, STEEL PIER and CONTACT."

in "Associated Press"

 

"She's perky without being precious, making song sound as easy as conversation and dance look as natural as walking... When she's around, the implict leer of THE PAJAMA GAME turns into an irresistible smile"

in "The New York Times" by Ben Brantley

"Ziemba, who has been a proficient musical fixture for quite some time now, just gets better and better at what she does. What she doesn't do here is much dancing, but she uses that lantern jaw of hers to give added heft to Babe's many fortright numbers."

in "TheatreMania.Com" by David Finkle


"...Ziemba and Barrett are perfectly cast as the classic American She and He... Ms. Ziemba and Mr. Barrett are so well suited to their parts it makes you think that 50 years ago they might have had the high-profile Broadway careers of a Mary Martin and a John Raitt... But it's gratifying to see them so effortlessly radiant in starring roles. Ms. Ziemba, in particular, has a spontaneity that makes a sweetheart of yesteryear feel very much of the moment."
