New York reviews ...
A superb chamber production - the small ensemble cast is terrific - director Daniel Buckroyd has delivered a seamless staging that fits perfectly in this theater's intimate confines. New York Post, Frank Scheck The nearly wall-to-wall music is often exhilararing - from folksy ballads and rousing anthems to thrilling choral work, all performed beautifully - put simply, The Hired Man works. New York Daily News, Joe Dziemianowicz Superb - big ensemble numbers all but pin you to your seat. New York Times, Charles Isherwood An intelligent and highly theatrical event - director Daniel Buckroyd has worked theatrical magic - an exhilarating introduction to this little-known piece of music theater. Variety, Steven Suskin Serious musical theater pulsating with passionate feeling. NJ Star Ledger, Michael Sommers Daniel Buckroyd's production is mesmerizing. TheatreMania.com, Peter Filichia

Audience feedback ...
A delightful and thought provoking story. Loved it. Very moving and funny. Fantastic and all the better for being in a village hall. As a farmer’s daughter so much of it rang true. Entertaining, informative, realistic, moving. From a farming family this really struck home. Heartbreakingly good. Thank you for bringing back memories of my childhood growing up on a farm. As dairy farmers many things rang true. I was spellbound. A truly wonderful production.
