Reception

The LA Weekly described Two Headed Dog's show Clowntown City Limits as "ravishingly brilliant ... as funny and pointless and circuitous as life on the margins",[3] and it was still playing well three years later, described as "hysterically imbecilic repartee" tinged with "a loathing resentment".[4]
