I met Andrew Barth Feldman after seeing him in Dear Evan Hansen. He was such a nice kid and he’s incredibly talented!

A good comedy is rare, this one is one of them! It’s not only really funny, it’s smart and really well played by Jennifer and especially Andrew, who plays it so genuine and pure he matches Jennifer’s wonderfull acting perfectly.
