Spectacular! This cast is a lesson in teamwork, harmony, and poetry in motion.Millie O’Donnell

Perfect for my 11-year-old son. I’m grateful to introduce him to shows in Ogunquit!Theresa Oakes

The performances at The Playhouse are the best anywhere. For many years I would see 4 or 5 shows on Broadway, and I can honestly say the Ogunquit has it all over Broadway.Debra Jankowski
