“Sickles nails the complexities in this relationship in such
a powerful way... There is something for everyone in the
audience to draw from; whether you are gay or straight, it
is very relatable.”
~ Gregory G. Allen, Huffington Post
“Playwright Scott C. Sickles creates an intriguing,
surprisingly believable study of human behavior...just about
any audience member will find something with which to
connect.”
~ Ronni Reich, Back Stage
“Sickles takes a potentially controversial topic and crafts a
beautiful story of a doomed romance. Like the old movies it
references, Casablanca chief among them, Moonlight & Love
Songs shows that love often demands sacrifice to become
transcendent.”
