"Alex Petti, has created a driving pop-punk score, with shades of 50s malt shop bops sprinkled on top for good measure. Blasted away by the phenomenal pit and smashing singers, audiences will leave humming the choruses, and one hopes they’ll be humming them for years to come as this killer show takes off."  — Chicago Land Musical Theatre, reviewing The Trouble With Dead Boyfriends

"...a really talented songwriter and I'm excited to hear what [he] continues to create"  — Benjamin Scheuer, writer of The Lion
