The always bewitching Sarah Sanford showcases her versatility performing four roles." –Philadelphia Weekly "The Lantern's show includes one of Philadelphia's best comedic talents (Tony Lawton), the city's most capable character actor (Seth Reichgott), and Sarah Sanford, who I consider the single most versatile actress in the region." –Edge Philadelphia |
