"Critic's Pick! A musical fantasia for all ages … a tour-de-force." —
CityBeat

"Sweet and straightforward enough to please young theatergoers. And it’s sharp enough for the grown-ups." — The Cincinnati Enquirer

"Incredibly family-friendly, filled with heart, and makes for a memorable night out in Cincinnati. … expect to be engaged from beginning to end." — Cincinnati Parent
