Reviews

Stephen Holden, The NewYork Times
"The Big Tease, a campy, moderately amusing new comedy, will take you behind the scenes at this ultraexclusive event in which the world's leading hair stylists battle tooth and nail, comb and curler, for the Platinum Scissors Award, a priceless pair of gleaming shears once possessed by Czar Nicholas II of Russia. And wait till you see their creations!"

Mick LaSalle, The SF Chronicle
``The Big Tease aims to do nothing but please, and it accomplishes its modest aim with charm and intelligence."
