REVIEWS:

"A buoyant, tuneful show."

Paul Kolas Worcester Telegram

"Theatrical magic... of the countless adaptations, this one is among the best...dialogue and lyrics are intelligent, the music tuneful and sprightly...a full-fledged musical with plenty of jollity...a smoothly-flowing show that respects its source while preventing it from being a musty museum piece."
