REVIEWS

Alexa Kelly has directed a cheerfully vulgar production. ... Some adolescents to my right seemed particularly interested in the corseted Mustardseed and Peaseblossom. ... High praise.
- Alexis Soloski, The Village Voice, on "Midsummer Night's Dream"

Disney got its representation from Melanie Gretchen, who sang "God Help the Outcasts" from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
- Tom Greene, The Clarion, on Winter Carnival's annual talent show at the University of Denver
