I found the story both strong and affecting with a simplicity that’s both rare and hard to achieve (which is probably why it’s rare). A sweet and refreshing innocence pervades the whole. And one can almost smell the sawdust.
Vaudeville and Circus Blogger, Trav S.D (NYC 2013)I believe deeply in the necessity of the new musical and this piece really does have great commercial appeal while still holding all the integrity of good art. This is a very worthy endeavor.
Tracy Bersley, Professor of Drama at Princeton and JulliardI had…a wonderful and unexpected experience …The Awakening of Angel DeLuna. Magic was in the air. The show had an uplifting message combining hope with the excitement of a circus. The music was so unforgettable that I still can’t get it out of my mind. The show is destined for greatness
Max Rossman, Cherry Hills TheatreI found Angel DeLuna beautiful, nostalgic and heartwarming - a simple story with a melodic score that draws you in and touches the heart - a piece that resonates in the best traditions of the American Musical.
Larry Hochman, Tony Award-winning OrchestratorWhat you have here is a big old fashioned musical that will leave the audience with a song in its heart and a tear in its eye! Congratulations on a bright and very enjoyable production!
Jack Finlaw, Director of Theatres for the city of Denver
