“Seattle. I am grabbing you by the face. I am staring deeply into your eyes. I am telling you to get tickets to GUNKED! before it closes on the 15th, and I fucking mean it. It's absurd. It's delightful. It's screamingly funny. I am ready for it to become a classic of Seattle theater RIGHT NOW.”
– Scarlett O’Hairdye, author/burlesque performer
"The most unhinged crazy fun I had at a theater all year."
– Maggie Lee, award-winning playwright
“BELIEVE THE HYPE! GUNKED! is unencumbered, inspired, and ridiculously fun. Don't miss out. This is Marcus Gorman, Jo Jo Stiletto, and Tootsie Spangles doing what they do best.”
– Cole Hornaday, The Panel Jumper
“GUNKED! rules. A riotously funny, screwball-esque take on a troubled children's television production that is one of the best things I've seen this year in any medium.”
— Marcus Baker, filmmaker/co-founder of Seattle Film Society
“You don’t want to miss it! Hilarious and enjoyable.”
– Kevin Nash, Bellevue Lighting
