"Friedman’s production sparkles...
Tim Jackson’s choreography has wit"
The Stage
​
"Somehow director Maria Friedman and choreographer Tim Jackson fill the stage with pods of movement and activity as loopy, tantalizing, and exacting as the lyrics"
The Daily Beast
​
"But the real stars are director Maria Friedman and choreographer Tim Jackson...an acutely focused exploration of friendships gone awry, unspoken love, and misguided obsession with success."
Queerty
​
"Piercing and refreshingly painful...Tim Jackson’s loosey-goosey choreography and the jazzy orchestrations of Sondheim’s longtime colleague Jonathan Tunick provide buoyant relief."
The New York Sun
​
"Tim Jackson’s choreography—more musical movement than dance—adds just the right kick."
TheaterLife
​
"“The Blob,” a song about hangers-on chasing the latest style (like Frank), cleverly showcases the busy ensemble."
New York Theatre Guide
​
"Tim Jackson’s snappy choreography with music directed by Alvin Hough, Jr. keeps the audience merrily rolling along"
FBT
​
"Intoxicating. Revelatory. They said it couldn't be done. But they've done it. And not only merrily. Magnificently"
Washington Post
​
"It's a Hit"
New York Stage Review
​
"A masterpiece. I watch director Maria Friedman's stunning, revelatory production through a kind of moist-eyed haze, mind racing, heart beating and all that stuff."
Chicago Tribune
​
"Thanks to superlative casting and canny direction, this elegant, emotionally searching production may be the finest Merrily you'll ever see."
The Observer
​
"Inspired. It's definitely been worth the wait. A stellar, musically sumptuous affair"
The Telegraph
