NEW YORK POST

“Well worth your attention.  An affectionate, well-crafted, surprisingly funny new musical.

You won’t be able to tell anymore if you’re laughing or crying. Probably because you’ll be doing both.”

WNBC NEW YORK

“Brooke is a natural storyteller whose musical gifts translate to the spoken word. 

The songs are melodic and haunting and the stories make them all the more poignant.

Artfully directed by Jeremy B. Cohen.”

It leaves you feeling hopeful and fortunate. You’ll be hooked.”

BLOG CRITICS

Remarkable.  A precious human revelation.  Brooke’s artistry is heartfelt and powerful. One cannot witness this production and remain untouched. The potion Brooke creates is readily drinkable and the unique, bittersweet taste lingers. We are better for her gently shaking our consciousness.

Brooke transcends a daughter’s loss with candid humor and authentic wit.  One can only hope that My Mother Has Four Noses continues to make the rounds. Brooke and Cohen’s poetry together really is terribly intimate.
