Review Quotes
MY South End – 06/27/2024
“Bane Griffith has all of Little Michael’s energy”
Star Tribune – 05/16/2024
“And there’s an overload of talent and cuteness with Josiah Benson.”
The Daily Wildcat – 04/04/2024
“Some of the cast members include…Josiah Benson, Bane Griffith…who were all bewitching in their own way. The younger talent, which includes Bryce A. Holmes, who portrayed little Marlon and previously mentioned Benson and Griffith, who both play little Michael, were enchanting. It is thrilling to see such remarkable talent at such a young age. ”
