The AP review is a definite rave.

Sherie Rene Scott to the rescue.

"Some of the best and most memorable evenings I've ever had at the theatre were one person shows."

I AM MY OWN WIFE is one of my theater-going highlights.

Not to mention THE SEARCH FOR SIGNS OF INTELLIGENT LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE.

I'm assuming that fictional search didn't lead to Muscle . . .

The Faster Times is pretty Mixed.

The singing and dancing of Scott and the two-person Mennonettes seem swallowed up by the larger stage, and ticket prices as high as $116 demand either the kind of huge star that Scott has not yet become or a more fully realized theater piece.

^ From what I could tell, only one of them really like it. One of them said they would not even recommend it to other people.

Yeah. Only the male is really crazy about it. The two women are more mixed.

Backstage is very positive:

Do we really need another revealing performance memoir with the subject treating the stage as a couch and the audience as a psychiatrist? They usually follow the basic pattern of the performer whining "My childhood was so screwed up, and I never got the attention or love I really needed; that's why I started acting" or singing or writing or designing dresses—or whatever. Well, we can use one more theatrical autobiography if it's as funny, quirky, and offbeat as Sherie Rene Scott's "Everyday Rapture," now in a Broadway transfer after a hit run at Second Stage last year.

Winer seems positive, based on the snippet, though not overly so:

'Everyday Rapture" is an easygoing end to a frantic Broadway season. This is Sherie Rene Scott's likable 90-minute, semiautobiographical musical - an Off-Broadway hit last summer at Second Stage and now the Roundabout Theatre's last-minute savior after the revival of "Lips Together, Teeth Apart" crumbled with the abrupt departure of Megan Mullally.

I have seen it, and can't wait to forget all about it. LOL!
Nah, I didn't hate it, just don't think any "one person" show belongs on Broadway.

Muscle very well could win stupidest BWW poster.

Matthew Murray at Talkin' Broadway is very positive:

"Scott, Scanlan, and director Michael Mayer have fashioned both women’s tales of joy, woe, and everything in between into a colorful, moving, and start-to-finish-fun evening that ranks as one of the most satisfying musicals Broadway has seen this season."
