What People Are Saying


"witty and accomplished"
-Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

"A rare twist between Stanley Kubrick and Bob Fosse featuring a complex female lead coming to terms with her libido...Livingston delivers a sharp...and provoking tale about the meaning of power, the nature of reality and the elusiveness of love by posing questions seldom heard at cinemas."
-RJ Grubb, Bay Windows

"sex scene is steamy, and a lavish musical number is amazing, cooler than anything in The Phantom of the Opera or Chicago. Busby Berkeley, 1933!"
-Gerald Perry, Boston Phoenix

"Might be the hit of this year's ...festival. Livingston describes "Who's the Top?" as 'Woody Allen's younger dyke sister goes to the S/M dungeon . . . with musical numbers.' Can George Lucas top that?"
-Editor's Picks, Boston Phoenix

"production numbers are more exhuberant than anything in Rent.
-Wesley Morris, Boston Globe

"could have been called, Dude, Where's My Feature?"
-The Village Voice

"a buoyant treatise on the history of lesbian politics around raunch, romance and relationships with gorgeously produced SM sequences and musical numbers."
-Toronto Xtra

"her legions of fans have waited in vain for a follow-up, so it's with a sigh of relief and a shiver of excitement that this fall sees the release of the Paris Is Burning DVD and of the provacative new short film Who's The Top?"
-Paper Magazine, Un-Hollywood Issue, October 2005
