Mr. Popper's Penguins Reviews
Chicago Reader- Recommended
"...This charming and funny hour-long family show, which uses life-size puppets to represent the birds, emphasizes the loving partnership of Mr. Popper and his improbably patient and supportive wife, whose participation in the action has been expanded from the original book. Under the crisp direction of Paul S. Holmquist, Kauzlaric's witty script and Howe's bouncy score is well delivered by Jonathan Schwart and Heather Currie as the Poppers and Josh Bernaski and Amanda Roeder in a variety of supporting roles."
Around The Town Chicago- Recommended
"...Lifeline Theatre's adaptations of children's books are always well done. "Mr. Popper's Penguins", an adaptation of a story by Richard & Florence Atwater, is absolutely charming. My granddaughter Molly and I really liked it. In fact, Molly liked it so much she got autographs!"
