"But it is really Cooper who deserves the major credit for the production. Rarely do you see a director's influence so strongly on a play, particularly a well-known one. If you are seeing Cabaret for the first time, you would probably simply think this is how it always is. But if you've seen it many times, you'll marvel at Cooper's vision."
— Contra Costa Times
"Director Mindy Cooper, choreographer Joe Bowerman and musical director Brandon Adams don’t drastically re-invent the musical, but they make smart choices – picking the best of previous versions and incorporating some original ideas – to create an exhilarating show with sizzle aplenty."
