"...With two talented leads who portray the mother and daughter who find themselves inhabiting each other's bodies, Hale Centre Theatre's production of Freaky Friday is a warm, winning and very funny crowd pleaser that beautifully balances the comedy and emotion in this humorous, heartfelt show....Director Cambrian James does an excellent job ensuring the emotional story at the core of the show isn't lost under the humor and fantasy elements....Heidi-Liz Johnson and Hope Niven are exceptional as Katherine and Ellie...They both use fun and numerous changes in their body language and facial expressions to make the change not only believable but also hilarious....Both actresses have superb singing voices that soar, assured line delivery that makes every joke land,...fast paced and funny, but it is also an emotional story that shows how becoming another person for a short period of time, or at least living in their body, could open your eyes and make you appreciate them better once you experience the obstacles they face in their lives...." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
