CRITICAL ACCLAIM
“A remarkable and uplifting piece of theatre, gives everything and asks nothing.” ~ Emer O’Kelly, Sunday Independent Dublin
“A banquet for the ears. Words create adventure that’s just as vivid as the special effects in a Hollywood Bonanza.” ~ Variety
“An Unparalleled portrayal. It isn’t the destination; it is the journey. Mr. Dooley’s effort so vividly embodies that maxim you almost believe it.” ~ The New York Times
