REVIEWS & PRAISE
Broadway World review: Four stars. “A fun and powerful show. Santos is a fantastic performer. OCD is truly the highlight of the show, with Santos playing an antagonistic frat boy who insists on doing rituals in order to ensure that Santos’ loved ones will not die. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.”
Fringe Biscuit review: Four stars. “A breakup saga bubbling with Bo Burnham-esque panache, Sophie Santos unpacks codependency in a raucous musical comedy. OCD serves as both adversary & mentor, lighting a path to self-acceptance. An inventive, self-aware & deeply resonant portrayal ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.”
