"...on the night I saw, Gia Pellegrini and Liam Kuriatnyk were fantastic as the rambunctious Banks children, Jane and Michael, with amazing voices. Well done both!"

"I could not finish this review without mentioning the stellar work of the Banks children. On my night, Michael Banks was played by Liam Kuriatnyk and Jane Banks was performed by Gia Pellegrini. Sometimes I get nervous watching child actors on the stage and that nervousness keeps me from entering into the production. Kuriatnyk and Pellegrini did not make me nervous, they made me happy and engrossed in the show. They are truly a highlight of the production."

"The children, Jane and Michael, are surely an important part, and here they are cast extremely well. In the opening night performance they were played by Gia Pellegrini and Liam Kuriatnyk (they alternate performances with Masie Marsh and Omry Macon), and I found them both to be very likable and extremely talented. Bringing children into leads in a show of this magnitude can be a risky proposition, but these two nail their roles, and their harmonies, together and with the ensemble, are just beautiful, and that doesn’t even consider the way they more than held their own dancing with the group."

"Gia is alternating the role of Susan with Beatrice Cramer, and she’s very good as well. A fine example of the amazing young talent we have in the region."
