"It's  One Heck Of A Fun Ride, complete with some of your favorite songs of the xxthursday Century.  This is a Must Encounter and Must Hear Musical that you lot will want to come across more than in one case!" Broadwayworld.com

" 'Respect' — and they ain't lyin'! Musicals have been fabricated from classic novels, campy movies and even comic strips, but information technology seems likely that RESPECT: A Musical Journey of Women is the first show to come up from a social history textbook." Hap Erstein, Palm Beach Mail service/PalmBeachArtsPaper

"RESPECT …. is an engaging and entertaining look at the evolving roles of women in the 20th century. Using popular Top 40 hits, music, video images, and costumes, Dr. Marcic illustrates how, in the early on part of the century, song lyrics resonated with women's dependency and submissiveness; echoed their rebellion in the late 1960s; and reflected their independence in the 1990s." Williams , MA paper
