The production has received high praises from Bruce Hallenbeck of The Independent,
who wrote of Anderson’s performance, “Amazing one-man show. . .what Dickens intended all along!”
Marion Hunter of CCScoop.com writes: "Everything David Anderson touches has two crucial elements: clarity and humanity..."
