"...You could see that the choreography was well done and that the actors had practiced hard. We also noticed how easy it was for the actors to bring smiles to our faces (not just the kids, but the adults as well)."

Chicago Theatre Review - Highly Recommended

"...The spunk, spirit, comic guidance and groovy dance moves can all be attributed to Johanna McKenzie Miller, a gifted performer who’s talents are usually enjoyed on the stage. In this wonderful arena production, she brings her expertise, experience and a sharp eye to direct and choreograph this charming musical comedy, bringing all these popular characters to life. Musically directed by Ellen Morris, and costumed with whimsy by Amanda Vander Byl, Ms. Miller has directed a production that’s truly as clever and captivating for adults, as it is for children. But young kids will laugh, clap along and simply enjoy seeing their favorite books come to life before their eyes. Don’t miss this unbelievable musical, the perfect summer confection for all ages."
