There are reviews for the first evening of GREAT MEN OF GENIUS at the Seattle PI and Seattle Times sites:

Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
"Daisey comes off as a kindred comic cousin to the late Saturday Night Live actor Chris Farley or maybe the precocious brother to social commentator/filmmaker Michael Moore. Each performance literally has a life of its own, as Daisey works without a script, using only a few pages of notes on yellow legal pad pages, and a towel always close at hand to wipe the sweat from his animated face."

Seattle Times:
"An interestingly unpredictable and uneasy moosh of homage and parody...a kind of dual Rorschach test, in which one man identifies his own demons and ideals in the ink-blot of another's life story."

And today's update in the SLOG is up, a review of night two, with both my comments and an irreverent review:

Great Men of Genius Debriefing #2: P.T. Barnum
The best use of swearing tonight: “Are you there God? It’s me, Judy Blume, spanking your ass,” followed closely by, “… and then her pussy says, ‘Hello, I love you.’”
