Rave reviews for The Dream Team

 

“’Dream Team’ goes the distance

… simultaneously an homage to baseball’s unsung Negro heroes and a celebration of the dauntlessness of the human spirit.  Engagingly jaunty … it entertains with its exuberant music and dancing, while evoking an unfamiliar chapter in the history of professional sport in America.” - Bridgeport Post

“Explodes with energy

... masterfully channeled into two rousing acts … The book is solid throughout … and Thomas Tierney (music) and John Forster (lyrics) have given The Dream Team a lively, tuneful and meaningful score.”

- The Shoreline Times

The Dream Team has big league potential

… A peppy musical romp that scores a number of hits with a splendid musical score and lyrics by Thomas Tierney and John Forster.” - Journal-Courier

“Hits, Few Errors in Dream Team

… With a major league cast, a jazzy score, a book of great potential and some extraordinary staging, this show ought to run until World Series time. The musical hits its climax in [the] thrillingly staged battle between the brothers. This last blast by composer Thomas Tierney and lyricist John Forster ‘The Wonderful Game,’… adds up to as strongly theatrical a finale as any in recent memory.”
