REVIEWS:

"A show for all ages and all seasons!"

Mark Shenton, WhatsOnStage

"Snoopy the Musical is as cute as warm puppy."

 Lizzie Loveridge, CurtainUp

"Effervescent...Larry Grossman’s melodies and Hal Hackady’s lyrics provide the playful glue that keep things zipping tightly along."

Joel Hirschhorn, Variety

"A delightful two hours spent with adults living out a children’s world."

Sheila Chisholm, Weekend Special

"Snoopy is a nice intro for young people to the delights of musical theatre and a terrific showcase for a talented and energetic cast to work their magic."

Joe Stead, Chicago Stage Standard

"Incontrovertibly an ensemble show...Schulz’s cartoon characters remain as endearing today as when they were first drawn."

Christopher Wiley, Musical Theatre Review

"Retains the fast, sharp comic appeal and instantly recognizable characterizations of the line-drawing originals, but also irresistibly brings it to human form by buoying up its snapshot scenes with the tuneful ease of the light, bright melodies of composer Larry Grossman's settings to Hal Hackaday's apt, witty lyrics."

Mark Shenton, What's On Stage
