Disappointing, Intelligent, Slow

See it if you enjoy a history lesson

Don't see it if you expect a "show". Interesting if you are a history buff

Ambitious, Absorbing, Intelligent, Thought-provoking, Great staging

See it if you are interested in historical figures and learning more about them and their American experiences and stories.

Don't see it if you aren't interested in the people who have made our country what it is and what they have gone through.

"Has great potential to fill in the gaps of what we are taught about our history in the school system, and for that it should be applauded...Yet while it is impressive that the production strives to tell as many stories of American history as possible, the delivery is uneven and heavy-handed, at some points just a massive hodgepodge of quotes and impressions of historical figures...Certainly an informative play, and I imagine it would be a wonderful resource for educators and their students."
