Press Reviews

"The show is charming, the numbers sizzle, what more can you ask?"

— The Cincinnati Enquirer

"A score that is altogether superb... fresh, youthful, and utterly captivating."

— The New York Times

"Pace, humor and presence that belies its age... there hasn't been a musical written in this decade with anywhere near as many first class numbers."

— The Day

"It is cheering to rediscover the authentic joys of this 1937 Rodgers and Hart musical. An exhilarating hymn to youth... Hart's acerbic wit perfectly counterpoints Rodgers' innate romanticism, and his lyrics are a triumph of ingenious wordplay."

— Michael Billington, The Guardian

"A pleasant outing featuring one of Broadway's most memorable scores."

— Jonas Schwartz, Theatermania
