HEATH SAUNDERS AS guy

“Heath Saunders cuts into the ballads with ache and yearning, modulating easily to gentler caressing, even crooning tones or letting loose with rocking snarls. They alternate comical diffidence with tentative cock-strutting as they are confused, allured, and eventually immersed in a romance that is as much artistic as hormonal with the Girl”

— Ithaca Stages

“Heath Saunders [as guy] and Julie Benko as Girl are an appealing pair”

— SYRACUSE.COM

“there’s so much music to enjoy –– [in particular] Guy’s solos”
