"Original and clever!" - Drama Logue
"Rosie the Riveter helped build planes in World War II. Now she has her own musical comedy. May it fly even longer than the planes did. Red, White and Rosie entertains without much strain, yet it also makes pointed comments about sexism, racism, militarism, even capitalism. You can enjoy it as a piece of nostalgia, but it has a lot more on its mind than most World War II musicals." - Los Angeles Times
"As entertaining a new musical as any in town." - Los Angeles Reader
"The Rivet Song" from Red, White and Rosie
