Crystal Creek Motel Reviews
Washington Post- Somewhat Recommended
"...Not all the segments in "Crystal Creek Motel" are successful. Among other failures, a drug-binge chronicle (by Kelly Colburn, featuring Madeline Key) is boring and overextended. A sentimental New Year's Eve episode (by Liebeskind, written with Nerissa Hart) is unconvincing. Overall, with a 2½ -hour running time, the show often feels self-indulgently long-winded."
DC Theater Arts- Highly Recommended
"...All in all, Crystal Creek Motel is an amazing piece of theater, combining words, music, projection, stagecraft, dance and most of all first-rate, versatile, physical acting into a breathtaking whole. Check in soon. I promise you will enjoy your stay."

"...Overall, Crystal Creek Motel is a surprising, campy showcase of some of the area's top talent-both on stage and behind the scenes-and a worthy spin to the short play genre. "We spend our lives in a place you're supposed to leave," muses one of the cleaning staff, but this is one seedy motel I wouldn't have minded spending more time in."
BroadwayWorld- Recommended
"...This is the story of Flying V's Crystal Creek Motel, the audience gains an insider look as to those who pass through their hotel rooms before they do. Each vignette in the play is a month of the year and there are 12 vignettes to account for every month of the year. Each vignette does a good job of painting a picture of its characters circumstances in that very moment, and each scene does a good job of capturing the drama that goes on in hotel rooms. The entirety of the play takes place in the year 2003. I do not understand the significance of the year but nonetheless it paved the way for a good soundtrack and some interesting clothing I have not seen in a while."
