Here are what the reviewers are saying about SOUVENIR:

“Constance Hauman gives a superb, “je ne sais quoi” performance as Foster…”Souvenir” is art and entertainment at its best.” - Tolucan Times

“…a hysterical telling of this unlikely soprano’s rise to fame…Brent Schindele is magnificent as McMoon, and it’s a wonder how he manages to keep a straight face throughout all of his co-star’s well-timed one-liners…Only a skilled vocalist could be terrible on command, and Hauman is about as good as bad can be…Schindele and Hauman are an effective odd couple, good for plenty of laughs and well worth the price of admission.” – Burbank Leader

“Good comedic direction, fine performances! Today’s audiences will eat it up.” – BroadwayWorld.com

“Three cheers for acclaimed opera singer Constance Hauman’s bravura performance of a different kind in Stephen Temperley’s funny and touching Souvenir…Brevoort elicited tender, sincere and humorous performances in this endearing love letter to Jenkins from this talented duo. Hauman and Schindele also displayed some of the funniest facial expressions ever seen on the Falcon stage…Costume Designer Terri A. Lewis rose to the occasion with flare… Mike Jespersen’s set design is elegant made more so by lighting designer Nick McCord…Souvenir offers a splendid evening of theater.” – Examiner.com

“Like Mike Jespersen’s elegant music room set, Gregg W. Brevoort’s production is smart and unfussy…the charming Hauman offers plenty of dowager yucks.” – LA Times

“Constance Hauman’s excellent performance in The Falcon Theatre’s terrific intimate production of Souvenir is reason enough to head on over to Garry Marshall’s theater in Toluca Lake-adjacent Burbank…Brent Schindele is one of the few in Los Angeles equipped to play the part and he nails it from start to finish. Schindele’s facial reactions to Florence’s wrong notes and his double-takes at her mistaken self-confidence are priceless…It’s not often that a play can provide laughs and gasps in almost equal measure, but Souvenir does just that.” -StageSceneLA

“Schindele’s performance is superb; he brings a true feeling of sensitivity to the role of Cosme, and proves his talent on the piano as well. His singing voice is pleasant, too. But the real charmer and tour de force is Constance Hauman as Florence Foster Jenkins. Hauman is a trained opera singer, and it takes someone like her with a flair for comedy and an unusual ability to be able to sing such offensive tones and still bring so much enjoyment to her audience.” – StageHappenings.com
