“There are a few moments in the show so extraordinary that I suspect I will think about them for years.”
- The New York Times
“Zaitchik, a rising star in the Gotham new-musical circles, has penned a gorgeous new score created, like everything else in this show, from whole cloth . . . . there is something at once old-fashioned and moderne about this material; melancholy, rich, smart, wise . . . . a significant new American musical.”
- Chicago Tribune
“Daniel Zaitchik’s Original Musical is Wonderful and Unabashedly Romantic . . . . A new talent in the theatre dazzles . . .”

“A story as subtle, detailed and moving as the childhood reminiscences of Truman Capote and Dylan Thomas. The Costume offers us a challenging new classic to add to the canon.”
- Time Out NY
“This is an extraordinary little piece — as delicate as Meissen china — with a sensibility that recalls the writing of Carson McCullers or perhaps Harper Lee . . .
To hang an entire piece on a child performer would seem to be an act of folly, but Douglas is word-perfect, unaffected, and so emotionally transparent in his handling of Zaitchik’s lovely music and words that one can’t look away, not even for a split second.”

"Daniel Zaitchik's melodies, nimble like a young Cat Stevens, open the gate to nonlinear song structures and soaring Sufjan Stevens-esque harmonies, suggesting a profusion of ideas somehow fused together.”
