Reviews
Folie is lavishly gifted, firing off non-sequitors and references like Eugene Ionesco rifling through Al Franken’s mail . . . a gut-busting agit-prop fracas.
The Los Angeles Times
[Panama’s] off-the-wall humor is hysterically funny. Like a snowball rolling downhill, the laughter starts slowly but picks up steam, until it sweeps through the audience like an avalanche.

Panama provides a riotous, side splitting, rolling in the aisles evening of theatrical fun that will leave a smile on your face for hours afterward. It will have you screaming with laughter. Make plans to go on this road trip!
The TriCity Times (NJ)
In this fast-paced comedy's spree from off-Broadway playwright Mike Folie, a murderous forty-something speeds towards California in search of the medicine that will grant him eternal life. The Tangent Theater Company's second production [in the 2003 Dublin Fringe Festival] is dedicated madcappery.
The Irish Times
The play's surface is mad-cap, but its meanings run deep. By the end of the evening all of your assumptions have been undermined. Think of it as Philosophy 101 on laughing gas.
