"Fasten your seat belts and hold tight. "Jesus Hopped the 'A' Train"
is a rocking, riveting ride directed by Stephen DiMenna, that leaves
the audience teetering on the edge of fear before dropping them over
the precipice. It explodes onto the stage of the Pillsbury House Theatre
and delivers a fiery urgency"

" DiMenna takes you over the edge of the abyss, then flips you over"

- Rohan Preston, Minneapolis StarTribune

 

"A powerfully performed staging. Director Stephen DiMenna
keeps his foot on the pedal throughout the evening illiciting masterful
performances making one wish for seat belts in the Pillsbury House Theatre. An energizing and provocative production."

- Dominic Papatola, St. Paul Pioneer Press
