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
