In his review for The New York Times, Brooks Atkinson said the play was "old hat" produced by "routine playwrighting".[2] Robert Benchley was similarly dismissive in The New Yorker, saying the play need not have been produced at all.[3] The production closed in less than a month, after 46 performances.
