“Playing at least three characters Colby N. Muhammed [was] spectacular. Showcasing nuanced versatility, [she] played some of the most outrageous, exuberant, and scene-stealing roles to my immeasurable enjoyment.”

“Taking on multiple customer roles, Colby N. Muhammad shines as a snobby classmate of Marie's, an overly curious bystander, and a whiny, albeit utterly exhausted, client who proceeds to fall asleep in the chair. [Colby and Melanie] provide the lion’s share of the comedy.”
