“L.A.’s finest acting talents, beginning with the incandescent Monette Magrath as Chelsea, whose powerful scenes opposite Linden and Pickles reveal decades of a daughter’s built-up hurt and resentment.”
“The plucky Henrietta, (is) brought to luminous life by a never-better Magrath…in Monette Magrath, playwright Gunderson has found her ideal, irresistible leading lady.”
“Playhouse favorite Monette Magrath (as alpha-lawyer daughter Jane) has that indefinable likeability factor that immediately wins an audience to her side, even when playing as tightly-wound a character as she does here. Magrath keeps Jane’s pain locked within, yet we sense quite rightly that out of sight does not mean out of mind. When she finally lets it out, the effect is all the more powerful coming from someone as outwardly ‘in control’ as Jane has seemed to be.”
“Magrath has simply never been better than she is as Abbie, revealing such sultry seductivness, it’s no wonder father and son find themselves hooked by her Hitchcock blonde allure.”
“As for Monette Magrath, just as ‘Desire Under The Elms’ proved she could be as seductive a stunner as the vampiest vamp, ‘Under My Skin’ reveals a comedienne to be reckoned with, whether in hilariously vapid anchorwoman mode or even more deliciously as Harrison’s ice-goddess girlfriend Victoria.”
