— Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
"Director Mark Clements has teamed with Eric Simonson (book) and Gordon Gano (music and lyrics) to create “a new rock musical” that deftly mixes the serious with the comical, the surreal with the factual, all while walking the line between reality and parody. It works so well that the audience just as engaged in the search for the truth as is Bambi and her supporters.”
