More information on next year's shows» Critical Acclaim– “Joyous and unapologetic...Vaudevillian magic…[Steve] Pacek has a grand time flying around the set…Fun to parents and manic younger charges alike” –The Philadelphia Inquirer [Review] “Whit MacLaughlin who clearly understands the minds of children - both those in the audience and those being portrayed on stage… an utterly adorable and laugh-inducing production. The performances are wonderful, but it's the world in which they exist that makes the production delightful for audience members of all ages.” –BroadwayWorld.com [Review] "Astonishingly creative production. As the mouse, Steve Pacek has a real flair for slapstick. David Raphaely plays the boy, and he's more than just an excellent straight man; he gets to show off his own talent for physical comedy. The two actors are greatly aided by David P. Gordon's outlandishly exaggerated set and the clever music and video design by Jorge Cousineau." –Talkin’ Broadway[Review] Behind the Scenes– Steve Pacek, the Mouse, talks about his theatrical career and his role in If You Give a Mouse a Cookie [Article] |
