 | | Because the kinetic, fiftyish Mustillo knows whereof he speaks and freely uses jargon like "speed rack" and "behind the wood" while revealing trade tricks, and because he's talking with thoughtful sincerity for thousands like him and his father, the erstwhile barman has poured one satisfying straight wry. |
 | | According to his bio, the actor-playwright started bartending when he was 20, and his father, Louis Mustillo Sr., to whom the production is dedicated, bartended for 52 years. |
 | | Another, up to his highballs in debt, wonders why he can be sued by a customer who exited looking stone sober and then had a near-fatal automobile accident. |
