Press Reviews

"Children should find delight in the puppets... one of (Swados’) happier efforts and worthy of becoming a public theatre institution."

— New York Daily News

"Beautifully cadenced... [an] extraordinary amalgam of ritual, reverence and theatrical expression. The work unfolds in a continuum of solos, part songs, choruses, narrative, and choral speaking... the 90-minute cantata proves a memorable experience — a creative collaboration to rank with Miss Swados's finest work."

— The Christian Science Monitor
