Director Matthew Wiener gets the best out of this terrific cast, and together they all keep the balls in the air with panache. ‘Moon Over Buffalo’ is a godsend.

Matthew Wiener who has proven himself to be a bona-fide farcemeister has marshaled a superb ensemble. All have outstanding comic timing and physicality. Downright side-splitting. You could call this one a Funny Valentine to theater.
