THE NEW YORK TIMES

The fact that Inappropriate was born from the pain and yearnings of young people also means it does an excellent job of conveying the primal emotional themes of adolescence.   --- Anita Gates

THE NEW YORK POST

Inappropriate is the edgiest review in years. Michael Sottile's rich score and honest words are

ultimately, unexpectedly inspiring – put over with the kind of life force that made Rent so remarkable.

Inappropriate is intriguing, alive, powerful and wonderfully inspiring.  --- Chip Deffaa

THE LOS ANGELES TIMES

Defiant and honest, and with driving energy and soaring harmonies, Inappropriate lets young people know that they're not alone, while reminding adults about the challenges of adolescence and enlisting their compassion and assistance.

Parents, take your kids. Kids, take your parents. Not

only is the musical, Inappropriate, a solid piece of entertainment, but it also has the power to heal.
