“I literally couldn’t stop smiling.  All the World’s a Stage Fright is a valentine and Abelman’s unfailing love of Cleveland theater comes through loud and clear.”  ~Vicky Bussert, Director of Music Theatre, Baldwin Wallace University


“Fast, punchy and funny.  Abelman combines a warm-hearted comic look at the terrors of creation with nuggets of history and context.  It’s one of those rare escapist reads where you come out a bit smarter than you went in.”  ~Eric Coble, playwright (The Velocity of Autumn, Bright Ideas)

Stage Fright offers a rare, first-person peek into the mind of a theater critic with humor that pours from every page.” ~Nathan Motta, Artistic Director, Dobama Theatre
