Tanis Parenteau, playing the role of Jane Snake in Manhattan and Le-le-wa’-you in Manahatta, is brilliant, on fire with the passion of newness and opportunity. It is this character that surfaces the notion of moral ambiguity in the production. Snake is certainly aware that her worlds are changing and that she must change, too.

Parenteau does great work here and gives a multi-layered performance as Jane and Le-le-wa’-you. I especially like what she does with Jane, who is smart and wants to succeed on Wall Street and pave a way for others like her, but at what cost to her soul?

The actors make their transitions from one time period to another brilliantly.

The ever-transitioning sets and staging are brilliant. So is the cast.

"W. Tre Davis and Tanis Parenteau have palpable chemistry, which makes the twist at the end all the more devastating."

"Roberta (Tanis Parenteau in a moment-to-moment powerful portrayal) bring us to an unexpected edge-of-our-seat reveal."

"Davis and Parenteau introduce their characters with charm and intrigue, so spending 20 minutes in bar with them is enjoyable. The acting and directing in all three offerings is obviously the work of consummate professionals."

"Roberta Laforme (played with seductive aggressiveness by Tanis Parenteau)"

"Under Kel Haney's direction, the piece works as a calling card for W. Tre Davis and Tanis Parenteau, skilled performers both."
