"...in the best parts of this solidly enjoyable revue is Michael Lehrer, among the smarter, more emotional and angrier actors Second City has had the good sense to hire. Lehrer (who, incidentally, really should be playing Rahm Emanuel), offers up both a deliciously self-loathing song bemoaning women who won't date short guys ("When we got out to eat / I'll use a booster seat") and, in the single best character of the night, a paranoid, mentally unhinged Realtor who provides a deranged window into the fate that awaits guys who handle one too many open houses." -Chris Jones - Chicago Tribune - June 20, 2012
"What's so brilliant about his performance is that it doesn't seem like a performance at all. This is undermining government at its best." -Jane Wells cnbc.com Link to Article
"Aside from our cast, two of my other favorites are Junior Stopka and Michael Lehrer. They, like everyone else I've mentioned, are 100% themselves onstage (even if they're in character), and they let you peek into their perspective enough to laugh like hell at the way their minds work, but with that enjoyable sense that you're barely scratching the surface, and it makes you hungry to hear more." - Examiner.com Interview with Elizabeth McQuern Producer of Chicago Underground Comedy
"Deadpan subtle...Lehrer acts the character and lets the jokes take care of themselves to strong effect. Even his version of outlandish has an interiority about it. He doesn't give up anything easy" -Tony Adler Chicago Reader
"Highly Recommended...the very funny Michael Lehrer..." -Alan Bresloff Around The Town Chicago
"Michael Lehrer shined most, pushing every button of his comic brilliance" -Democrat And Chroicle (Rochester, NY)
"Standouts include Michael Lehrer, the chameleon whose over-the-top Genny Cream Ale salesman was one of the nights funniest local bits." "Quick wit and terrific range..routinely stole whatever scene." -City Magazine (Rochester, NY)
"...exuding pathos and charisma." -Chicago Reader
"...parade of funny entertaining characters.." -S. Heisler Time Out Chicago
"...chameleon-like character actor.." -Christopher Piatt Chicago Sun Times
