"It seems difficult to imagine a sequel to Prokofiev's "Peter and the Wolf" that does justice
to the original. But with 'Peter VS. the Wolf,' Justin Locke has done just that-- and then
some."
---Boston Patriot Ledger
""Peter VS. the Wolf" is absolutely hilarious."
---Springfield (MA) Union News
"Our performance of "Peter VS. the Wolf" was an absolute smash!"
---Margaret Terry, Education Director, Phoenix Symphony Orchestra
""Peter VS. the Wolf" is the liveliest introduction to orchestral instruments I've ever heard."
---Syracuse Post Standard
"Our performance of "Peter VS. the Wolf" set a new attendance record for our family
concert series."
---Jonathan Martin, Spokane Symphony
"The Nashville Symphony has done the impossible. I never thought I would see
seventh graders sitting on the edge of their seats totally enthralled by a symphony production.
The Nashville Symphony's performance of "Peter VS. the Wolf" was so clever and so
entertaining and of such quality that an audience of 2,000 upper elementary and junior high
students were held motionless and spellbound."
---Mary Francis Short, Teacher
"Our performance of 'Peter VS. the Wolf" was a tremendous success. Everyone involved,
from musicians to actors to audience, had a great time . . . we certainly will be
programming this again."
---Richard Decker, Syracuse Symphony
"Ticket sales were great . . . we had to turn people away. Producing the show was easy . . .
it made a nice partnership with a local acting group, and we took advantage of marketing to
their audience. The nature of the play offered all sorts of marketing avenues, including tie-
ins to public school writing programs and information on wolves provided by the Museum of
Natural Science. (We had one group of kids picket the rehearsal, with signs saying "Raleigh
Symphony Unfair to Wolves.") We performed in two venues, and the show was adaptable to
each. And it was great to have the parents really involved on the performance; they were
yelling 'guilty' or 'innocent' louder than the kids."
---Virginia Zehr, Raleigh Symphony Orchestra
"Some standing ovations are obligatory and others are spontaneous and all at once. "Peter
VS. the Wolf" certainly brought the latter. The crowd loved it and the orchestra members
ate it up."
---Chuck West, Virginia Commonwealth University
