"Chris J. Handley (who ably switches from disaffected football player to impassioned cafeteria lunch lady) ... seem[s] to have as much fun as the audience."
Off Off Online / Now That You've Seen Me Naked / February 2007
"... the energetic Handley sings a frenzied song of anxiety when he accidentally discovers an instrument of manual stimulation in his girlfriend's nightstand. Handley winningly whines and gesticulates with the elongated purple prop."
ArtVoice / Reefer Madness / October 2006
"Chris J. Handley ... has perfected the angel-faced crazy shtick and employs it to full effect as his character’s life on dope careens out of control."
the Buffalo News / Unholy Trinity / September 2006
"The golden-haired and golden-voiced Chris J. Handley ... has a lovely voice, well-suited to the various satirical and "showy" tunes he performs."
the Sun-Sentinel / Lucky Stiff / November 2008
"[Handley] has an expressive, engaging voice."
