“Move over, Mean Girls and Wicked: There's a new musical exploding with grrrl power, female camaraderie and uplifting songs, and it teaches an essential piece of history to boot.... Ten quadruple-threat performers play all the parts and most of the instruments.... UNDENIABLY INSPIRATIONAL.” ~ Time Out New York
“THRILLING... SMART, HUMAN and sardonically feminist, with a lively ragtime-and-jazz score... there is a palpable sense of filling in an important blank: showing an adventurous female presence in the war story we thought we knew... It boasts AN EXCELLENT CAST of actor-musicians who have a multitasking ease as they play the instruments scattered around Lianne Arnold's clever, giant-pegboard set. A handsomely designed production, it also sounds TERRIFIC.” ~ The New York Times
“Filled with memorable songs and BRILLIANT PERFORMANCES, it is a musical as TRIUMPHANT as the true story on which it is based... Mills has filled this action-packed war story with INSTANT-CLASSIC SONGS... Reichel's inventive staging holds the vasty fields of France between two upright pianos.… You're unlikely to see a more talented group of performers anywhere in New York... A JOYOUS EXPERIENCE.” ~ Theatermania
“TERRIFIC BEYOND BELIEF!”
~ Peter Filichia, Broadway Radio
“A FASCINATING historical story, GREAT MUSIC, an EXCEPTIONAL CAST, and the finest staging… This troupe captures the musical's moving story of heroism… The Hello Girls is a distinctive portrayal of the strength and fortitude of women… This ENTERTAINING, INFLUENTIAL show will have a long life in the realm of musical theatre." ~ BroadwayWorld
