"...The Diary of Anne Frank is a deeply engaging, taut, suspenseful and moving yet ultimately sad and depressing story of lost hope and the unspeakable consequences of Hitler's rise to power. While it may be heartwrenching, Arizona Theatre Company's production is an ultimately beautiful tribute to Anne, her family, and the millions of others that lost their lives in the Nazi death camps." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)

"..Director David Ira Goldstein creates a sense of urgency throughout that, if memory serves, was largely absent on previous Anne Frank productions. Part of this has to do with with Wendy Kesselman's update which appears to focus in on elements that stirs emotions previously untapped by the play's original adaptation, particularly at the conclusion...." -David Appleford, Valley Screen and Stage (click here to read the complete review)
"...the gripping Arizona Theatre Company production, staged artfully by artistic director emeritus David Ira Goldstein, pulls audiences into the story...Brilliant as Anne is Anna Lentz who captures the girl’s brilliance...a powerful but depressing testament to the evils that people project onto to others during stressful times. It is an indictment of intolerance and the evils such thinking can have on others. The artful ATC production does this brilliant play its due. " --Chris Curcio, Curtain Up, Phoenix (click here to read the complete review)
"...David Ira Goldstein...put his distinctive signature on the play...endows the production with an intimacy and gaiety that is almost too much to bear. Because we know what's coming. ..In a remarkable feat of acting, (Anne) Lentz captures the soul and moods and energy of Anne Frank...a play to which adults should bring their children ~ for perspective. And, for remembering. " - Herbert Paine, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
