“A romantic comedy acutely attuned to the interior weather of adolescence—the charged silences, the moral vertigo, the way a single, impulsive act can reorganize an entire social universe. […] The inciting incident is almost laughably small yet the production and director Zachary Elkind understand, with admirable seriousness, that for a young person this is nothing less than an earthquake. What If We Kiss captures, with rare delicacy, is the way young people experience such convergences as both comic and catastrophic. The play treats adolescent feeling with respect, refusing to condescend to its intensity while still allowing space for humor and grace. In doing so, it reminds us that first love is never merely personal: it is social, moral, and—when the generations begin to rhyme—quietly political.” — Theaterscene

“For all the comedic touches, the show accurately captures the outsized terrors of high school. […] It also does the parents justice — when Charlie’s mom tries to articulate the differences in her feelings for and relationship with her ex and now with Kevin’s dad, the show skips the jokes and slows down to treat this more mature relationship as seriously as it does Charlie’s.” — Theater Pizzazz

“Sweet coming of age tale of teenagers figuring out about first kisses, navigating friendships & changes in one's life with phenomenal cast that become different characters seamlessly. Grab a date and hightail it to If We Kiss!” — 6 Second Review
