Critical Reaction

"Lovely melodic music by Andrew Lippa. ...A Little Princess has much going for it.... We need this kind of family musical to bring parents and children to live theatre."
– Talkin' Broadway

"A Little Princess is exuberant, lively.... Lyricist Brian Crawley and composer Andrew Lippa have re-conceived and re-imagined the tale, expanding it beyond the confines of Victorian England."
– Berkeleyside

"Lippa... captures the unfettered yearning of childhood in music achingly driven by African drumbeats."
– The Mercury News
