Ben Brantely of The New York Times said the play is "theatre at its finest... absurdly enjoyable! This gleefully theatrical riff on Hitchcock's film is fast and frothy, performed by a cast of four that seems like a cast of thousands."

The production features scenic design by Robert Broadfoot, lighting design by Michael P. Frohling, costume design by Shan Jensen, and stage management by Actors' Equity Association production stage manager, Liz Reddick.
