"...the accomplished playwright Paula Vogel has thrown the tragedy of the Civil War onto her word loom and concocted a touching, sometimes humorous, and always affecting theatrical quilt of many tones. As directed by Nathan Motta, the Dobama production is handsome without being fussy, focusing on the people—from Abraham Lincoln and the generals and soldiers to the slaves who were running for their freedom. These stories are wound around more than 20 songs in a rich musical landscape created by Daryl Waters."       -Christine Howey, Scene Magazine
"...a beautifully written and gorgeously told story about lives in dramatic transition during the unforgiving winter of 1864. Everyone who walks across the stage and into our lives during this well-paced...production is in search of something or someone that has been sacrificed during the War Between the States and is in desperate need for its return.  Facilitated by Ben Needham’s rotating bare wood stage and Marcus Dana’s dramatic lighting, (Director Nathan Motta) works hard and succeeds at putting everyone’s story on equal footing and allowing one person’s perspective to flow seamlessly into another’s...it is impossible not to be engaged and moved by the warmth and intensity of this disciplined and talented core of actors and the rich characters they create."        - Bob Abelman, Cleveland Jewish News & The News Herald
