Review:
“[a] deft, gentle piece of invention... The show's tremendous appeal lies in the encounter between fantasy and the everyday - and in the wit and emotional honesty with which the whimsy is applied. Goode tells his delicate story with grace, rhythm and a lot of TLC... if the future of theatre is this Goode, we'll all be smiling.” 4 stars – Time Out
