Press

In spite of the ghost, it is a lively comedy by Paul A Mendelson (There is another Paul Mendelson?) with the excellent George Costigan and Miriam Karlin, who reminds me of a Jewish version of De mortuis nil nisi bonum, "Dead don't make you better".

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 24th February 1992
