Critics are saying:
“WICKEDLY ENTERTAINING! Perhaps not since “Hair” itself have flowing locks and what are attached to them made such a becoming impression onstage.” – The Washington Post
“HOT & HILARIOUS AND RIOTOUSLY FUNNY! Jaja's is a buffet of delights, full of treasurable moments when the drama feels tightly woven with the comedy.” – The New York Times
“WAVES OF GLEE ROLL THROUGH THE AUDIENCE on the regular. People are cackling, downright screaming with delight. There’s something exhilarating about listening to people snap and holler and cheer not because they’re seeing someone famous but because they’re seeing someone they know.” – New York Magazine
“BRILLIANT! A powerful tale about joy, dreams, societal and familial expectations, community, politics, loss, and sisterhood.” – Entertainment Weekly
“BRISTLING WITH WIT AND HUMOR, JAJA’S HAS BOTH STYLE AND SUBSTANCE!” – The Daily Beast
