"the desired Mr. Darcy (dark, cool and sexy Carman Lacivita)"
-Syracuse New Times
"The chemistry, comedy, and impressive character acting of the ensemble cast make this a knock-out production."
-Broadway World
"Carman Lacivita delivers a touching performance in the sympathetic role. Mr. Darcy is the most serious role in this production. Lacivita and Angela Janas' chemistry make you fall in love with Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet once again."
-Broadway World
"playfully brilliant...The entire cast demonstrates a fevered, frenetic focus...to single one out would suggest all are not at an equal high-level of performance -- which they are..."

"Last but certainly not least, Carman Lacivita inhabits and exaggerates middle sister, Mary, to tremendous comedic effect. Described in Austen's novel as the plain sister, into music and moralizing, Mary in the hands of Lacivita becomes a veritable spook and the sincerest of malcontents. The effect is hilarious as she moans about constantly being left behind, forgotten, neglected and has a habit of startling others when she suddenly appears very nearby. Again, in stark contrast and in heightened exaggeration, Lacivita transforms into Bingley--a hyper-extrovert to Mary's introvert. There's no mistaking it; we've gone well beyond caricature when you realize the actor must have been asked to play his character as if he were a literal golden retriever. Nothing could be more apt for Austen's Mr. Bingley; the physical comedy pushes right into farce and invites the audience to enjoy the ride."
-Broadwayworld
"kudos must also go to a few actors who cross the gender line, particularly Lacivita, with his interpretation of ugly duckling Mary"
-Bennington Banner
"With devastating deadpan, Carman Lacivita plays the unlovely Mary as if she's a member of the Addams Family. Lacivita also has the show's silliest physical stunts as Mr. Bingley, who is portrayed as a puppy. Even at rest, this Mr. Bingley bounces on the balls of his feet, alert for a game of fetch."
-Seven Days Vermont
"Carman Lacivita plays the youngest, least attractive Bennet girl in a pensive, petulant, piquant manner, but is also Mr. Bingley, the handsome and aristocratic if awkward suitor of the eldest daughter, Jane. Late in the second act, he needs to be both characters in the same scene and this is handled with a physical humor that is just as funny as any single line in the show."
-Berkshire Edge
"Lacivita invents two very distinct and entertaining characters as the dour Mary and the puppy-dog perky Mr. Bingley"
-Berkshire On Stage
"a riotously funny production"

"It’s by far the smartest Jane Austen adaptation to come along since Amy Heckerling’s Clueless,
and at least as much fun."
