Critic and Audience Reviews
-Carl F. Gauze, Ink 19...a big blousy comedy that keeps you on the edge of your seat...
-Albert Gutierrez, BroadwayWorld Orlando...a stage rendition of The Three Musketeers that would do Dumas proud.
-Brad Haynes, Central Florida SceneWhen it comes to escapist fun, Orlando Shakes’ The Three Musketeers is about as good as it gets.
-Matthew J. Palm, Orlando Sentinel...a rip-roaring good time.
