reviews

A stellar job on making those actors look the part.
— Kristen Morale, Broadway World
Most impressively, Fabio Toblini and Joseph Shrope’s costumes adroitly merge period attire, comically vulgar frocks, and playful nostalgic fashion.
— James Wilson, Talkin' Broadway
The costumes constitute a consistently droll parade of sheath dresses, Bermuda shorts, Pat Nixon cloth coats, and other period fashions.
— David Barbour, Light and Sound America
Fabio Toblini and Joseph Shrope’s costumes embrace both ancient Verona and modern-day Brooklyn.
— Deirdre Donovan, Curtain Up
Costume designers Fabio Toblini and Joseph Shrope clearly delighted in producing outfits from the various periods, catching every detail from the chic high-heeled shoes to the gold jewelry worn by most of the characters.
