“The piano and music itself are the outstanding stars in this adaptation of Anna Goldsworthy’s award-winning memoir… a piece of music theatre that seems to have been made in heaven… It is not only an ode of joy to the piano and those who composed for it, but a wonderfully tender account of a pupil-teacher relationship…90 minutes of pure enchantment” – The Courier-Mail
“Goldsworthy is both actor and pianist in an honest and revealing portrait of her musical and personal development from gawky child, to self-conscious and doubting adolescent, to mature adult…her performance is impressive as she flips back and forth between the demanding roles of actor/narrator/pianist with barely a moment to focus before launching into extended excerpts of some of the most challenging repertoire.” – The Sydney Morning Herald
“Helen Howard (as Mrs Sivan) has the good fortune of inheriting some memorable lines and her excellent portrayal brings to life this charismatic and passionate individual without slipping into parody…Director Michael Futcher’s touch is light and successful.” – The Age
