HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING!

It was absolutely hilarious! The music was humerus as well . Looking forward to listening to the CD!!

As your musical fairly showed..our father was far from a perfect man. However the show (which was excellent by the way) accurately depicted was that Dad lived life exactly on his own terms and woke up everyday living as if it was his last day on earth. Something we should all try to do a little more of. Thank you for an emotional and rewarding evening. Daves Sauna the Netflix series maybe?? Wonder years meets Shameless??

As a little hippie kid in the 1980's, I took many saunas at Dave's with my parents. I even went in the early 2000's, to see what it was like (+ to get a lovely hot bath, of course). Imagine my surprise when I saw that someone had made a musical about the place! A show about a spot in Oxford County -- a part of Maine which doesn't get much limelight -- where I had been! About people I'd known! HOLY SHIT (I exclaimed when I saw the poster)! This kind of thing........it just doesn't happen. There was NO. WAY. I was going to miss that. I wasn't disappointed. The creators did a crack job with a minimal set -- especially the counter + chair -- + handled complex issues + people with honesty + dignity, while still being fun. I am glad that, unlike many other nostalgic entertainments, they did not shy away from the harder, potentially negative elements of their subject matter -- drugs, irresponsibility, poverty, homophobia, sexism -- but presented them as parts of the people + cultures they portrayed, just as much as the freedom, community, warmth, + dedication to simplicity being celebrated. From the ragged hippie toddler sitting on the stairs in the back of the waiting room watching reruns of Wonder Woman, + the grown woman she has become, congratulations.

​We were one of his regulars so we thoroughly enjoyed watching the show. 
Actually, we never knew about his shenanigans! He must have been quite stealthy. The acting was fantastic and the band was excellent. The band really enhanced the whole experience. Jess's song at the end was memorable. THANK YOU for all those memories!

​I am truly grateful I had an opportunity to see this performance in Lewiston! I'm not the type to write a review but it was such a pleasure to see, the story line is epic! Great cast the band was amazing! Nailed it....

We got to attend one of the performances of Dave's Sauna are still talking about it. Thank you for the effort that went into the productions and the wonderful acting performances on stage!! We'd love to hear about it if the show is performed again in the future. I signed up to the Facebook page. If there is a different way to stay informed please let us know. Thanks again for a wonderful show!

The talent was astounding! Great fun.
