Reviews
"Bartusiak could become an overnight sensation when her Helen arrives at Broadway's Music Box Theatre. The physicality of Helen's restless probing, her prideful resistance, and her moments of infantile joy are all convincing." Perry Tannenbaum of Creative Loafing Charlotte
"Bartusiak and Swank save this Miracle with their marvelous performances." Allison West of Charlotte Theatre
