"Jackson Thomas-Clark Martin as Karl…is at once heartbreaking and entertaining—described as a giant, he fills the expansive Collins Alumni Auditorium stage with his finely crafted performance…"

Jeff Ellis, Broadway World

"…“Off to Massachusetts” at the piano with Mr. Laurence (Jackson Thomas-Clark Martin) was a light breath of fresh air in Act 1. Martin’s comedic flair was a welcome addition throughout many of his scenes."

Jessica Lynn French, Theatre 4 All
