"In a simple declarative sentence: I haven't seen a better cabaret show in years. Peter Yawitz is a dazzling triple threat. He's personable, dead-pan funny and an instinctively sharp performer. His comedy is commentary on our current society, in the spirit of a Will Rogers, or perhaps Mort Sahl, with a touch of Lenny Bruce's irreverence." -- Peter Leavy, Cabaret Scenes |

"Here's a guy who thinks and writes funny, who performs with assured ease, and, moreover, who concerns himself with subject matter that doesn't occur so regularly to others." -- David Finkle, Back Stage |
|
"There's still quite a bit of intelligent, witty fare out there. Example: the hilarious lyrics of performer-songwriter Peter Yawitz, whose show is a winner." -- Michael Portantiere, theatermania.com |

"Yawitz delivers the kind of button-down, intelligent humor that made people like Bob Newhart and Mort Sahl famous, only he sings it. His easy manner, pin-point delivery and clever lyrical social commentary provide a hilariously entertaining hour." -- Michael Dale, broadwayworld.com |
