The Wolf of Walmart Reviews
| Star Tribune - Recommended
"...The production offers some of the cutting-edge send-ups we’ve come to expect from the workshop, which was founded 55 years ago by Dudley Riggs and which on Friday had alumni such as Michael Anthony and Pat Proft in the audience. “Walmart” also has to take us inside the world of corporate control as embodied by Jasperson, who seems sweet enough but has a weird, haunting laugh."

"...But directors Caleb and Katy McEwen keep things moving, snapping the cast briskly from sketch to sketch and keeping most of the vignettes (with the exception of an overlong sketch about how TV dramas flog us with cliffhangers) at the right length. At the end of two hours, "The Wolf of Walmart" nourishes, even if it seldom tantalizes your comic palate."
