...(Childsplay's) world premiere production of Selena Maria Sings focuses on the impact the death of a boy has on his mother and sister and does so in a serious but uplifting way while also never talking down to any young audience members. With a wonderful cast and excellent creative elements, Selena Maria Sings makes for a welcome addition to a long list of exceptional plays that Childsplay has premiered....Director Melissa Crespo ensures the serious nature of the play isn't shortchanged but also that the funny moments are organic to the plot. Her cast all create realistic characters and relationships. As Selena Maria, Kariana Sanchez evokes youthful enthusiasm while also beautifully expressing the love she feels for her brother and the confusion she has in trying to navigate around her strained relationship with her mother.... a wonderful story that shows how someone's passion can help them overcome loss, reconnect with a family member, and have the strength to simply be themselves." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
