Last Stop On Market Street presented by Young People's Theatre of Chicago at The Greenhouse Theater Center

Chicago Reader - Recommended

"...Singletary and Upton’s musical duets are memorable and wide-ranging, from punchy hip-hop to plaintive ballads. Around them, the rest of the cast creates the textured fabric of a diverse, multicultural city and at my performance, kids were up and dancing in their seats."

Around The Town Chicago - Highly Recommended

"...The ensemble, composed of 4 sterling actors take on all the other roles in this one hour story. Fabian Guerrerro handles several roles, but is most notably the Bus Driver. Maya Lou Hlava portrays several characters but the most important one is JoJo, a homeless girl hat CJ learns a great deal from. Ania Martin plays JoJo's grandma and Madame Butterfly and Richaun Stewart , a large man plays a number of roles where he dances up a storm and is able to toss some of the other cast members around ( dance routines, of course)."

Chicago Theatre Review - Highly Recommended

"...As this charming and funny little musical entertains audiences of all ages, we're reminded of how good life can be. We can enjoy this simple story while rediscovering how important it is learning to walk in someone else's shoes. During this fast-paced, hour-long production, we see the world through the eyes of a 7-year-old little boy named CJ, who finds out how satisfying it can be to help others, and to enjoy the fun of freeing a jar of butterflies with a new friend."

"...Despite the fact that I have never read the Newberry Award-Winning children’s book called Last Stop on Market Street, I chose to see the musical adaptation on a sunny Saturday afternoon. And I have to say, I am impressed with this fun-loving musical at the Young People’s Theatre of Chicago. This show is everything you could ask for with beautiful variations of music, singing, dancing and a playful cast."

Third Coast Review - Highly Recommended

"...Last Stop on Market Street, now being staged by Young People’s Theatre of Chicago, is a children’s story with lively music and song and dance performed by six talented actors. The play also carries messages about life, which may or may not come across to the youngest members of the audience."
