Chris Jones with the Chicago Tribune exclaims, "…Ernie Nolan's well-paced production is sassy and on target." Hedy Weiss with the Chicago Sun-Times says, "Gregor's score is a zestful pastiche that ranges from jazzy blues and quasi-operatic numbers to half-time pom-pom-shaking cheers. And Ernie Nolan's lively direction and choreography…make the most of it." Phil Potempa with the Northwest Indiana Times raves, ""…this storybook-brought-to-life adventure combines just the right amount of music and comedy with themes that audiences of every age can learn from."
