"The show teems with adorable characters, an upbeat score, and a seamless blend of warmth and comedy. Compass Rose Theater is delightfully bringing these beloved characters (and their sidekicks!) to the stage in You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. Wonderfully directed by Tracy Adler (with musical direction by Barrett Johnson and choreography by Tori Farnsworth), this play is a charming stroll through childhood, filled with humor, heart, and song."
— DC Theater Arts
"It is rare to find a show that delights every age. The fun music, down-to-earth story, and relatable characters make this a perfect show for children, while the witty humor, deep thoughts, and phenomenal singing make this the perfect show for adults. You will have a great time no matter who you are, whether you have known and loved the Peanuts gang your whole life, or this is your first introduction to them!" — MD Theatre Guide
