What are the film critics and Industry saying ?

“Fabulous song writing!” – Rick Nicolet (Producer/Writer at Sony Pictures)

“I loved all the songs and the performances. There’s some real talent here. Don is an excellent song writer. All of the songs were catchy, moving or just plain fun. The singers were amazing.”  James Royce

“Good voices, solid performances! Very tuneful music. Everyone was well cast.   Fun, brilliant, good tunes, good story!”  Anon.

“I liked the musical aspect of it with its Broadwayesque style flavorings.
I liked that it gave a history lesson of how Manhattan New York became who she juxtaposed of New Yorkers hustle and bustle.” Maat Atkins

“Mary Rachel Gardner has beautiful voice and was excellent in multiple roles.  Nothing could be improved. Great job! This was a charming show that was very entertaining. As a New Yorker, I loved a musical that included a modern day story with a thought line that took us into NYC history. The show was an hour long. I would be interested in seeing the full version.” KRISTEN NAPIORKOWSI

“Greedy McCreedy definitely breathed life into this play with his comedic relief of timing, sarcasm, and all around witty personality. The music was very nice and backed up with some very beautiful and talented vocals from each cast member.”  Andrea Carlton
