“It’s the most exhilarating example of locomotive storytelling on Broadway since the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby visited three decades ago…” New York Times
“Peter soars—deliriously high and gloriously far. ” Time Out New York
“…rich in antic humor and theatrical invention, but the stardust loses potency and becomes a tad precious on a larger stage.“ Hollywood Reporter
