Roy Berko - Theatre Critic

“Wisely, director Pat Ciamacco has the cast playing real, rather than broadly over acting.  This technique makes the obvious story line, with its sexual innuendoes, properly ridiculous.” 

“DEBBIE DOES DALLAS is the kind of show that will entertain some, irritate others, titillate some, offend others.  The script, the production, and the concept has all the makings of a cult musical…”

Andrea Simakis - Theatre Critic (The Plain Dealer)

“Though still new on the scene, with "Debbie," Blank Canvas, under artistic director Patrick Ciamacco, has brought another twisted, funny, edgy musical to Cleveland… where the people onstage are having as much fun as the audience.”   

As the titular Miss Debbie Benton, Andrews pouts and poses and ponders her fate with the kind of clueless commitment that is reminiscent of the great Anna Faris in any B-movie you can name. Andrews… is a scream. So is the whole show.”

"If you’re expecting a dramatic, award-winning story with family-friendly music, Debbie is not for you. If you’re up for a night of crass, innuendo-filled camp provided by half-naked actors, Debbie will fit your bill."

Christine Howey - Theatre Critic (Scene Magazine)

“…Debbie Does Dallas, the Musical is a libidinous and raunchy holiday treat. And those are the best kind.”

“…the cast, under the direction of Patrick Ciamacco, manages to infuse this bawdy juvenilia with enough wit to keep the show on the rise.”

"Much like THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MUSICAL, that launched Blank Canvas Theatre’s inaugural season, DEBBIE DOES DALLAS THE MUSICAL is a hit"

“The entire cast is strong in their understanding of the script and the subject matter.”

“Director/Owner Patrick Ciamacco pulls out all of the stops at Blank Canvas for the season’s closing curtain.”
