REVIEWS

"A heartfelt musical romp for kids of all ages" ~ Chicago Sun-Times

"A jubilant musical for the entire family terrifically entertaining a must-see top-notch family entertainment that just happens to promote positive values" ~ Chicago Theatre Review

"From the moment you hear the opening number, 'Where Your Dreams Come to Life you revel in that inimitable Dozier sound a blend, really, of the senior Dozier's signature Motown-like sound and the younger Dozier's excursions more into hip-hop stylings although, given Lamont Dozier's famous talents for musical reinvention, I'd bet they worked closely together on everything" ~ Chicago Tribune

"Will have your toes tapping and your kids leaving with a lesson every parent can support: Believe in yourself and those around you" ~ Chicago Parent magazine
