"BEST BET! Should not be missed!" | |
- Charlene Baldridge ( SDTheatreScene.com ) | |
"A story that should be told! Clarence Jordan was a genuine American hero, but he’s not known by many. Lamb’s Players’ excellent world premiere should help remedy that. What gives the play even more emotional heft is the gospel score, rendered beautifully." | |
- Don Braunagel ( Sandiego.com ) | |
"BEST BET! A juicy slice of history and an inspiring affirmation of faith! A striking, highly theatrical production, under the imaginative direction of Robert Smyth. Mike Buckley’s set is a magical creation, and an impressive cast of 17 creates over 40 characters and gorgeously sings gospel numbers that punctuate the action." | |
- Pat Laurner ( Patch.com ) | |
"CRITIC'S CHOICE! Lamb's Players Theatre and director Robert Smyth roll out a production that feels rooted in the soil and soul of the civil-rights-era South. A mix of homespun humor and spiritual heft goes to the heart of Dennis Hassell's gospel-laced drama." | |
- James Hebert ( San Diego Union-Tribune ) | |
