Washington Post - Highly Recommended

"...Holly Twyford, the Sarah Bernhardt of the D.C. theater scene, may have raked in Helen Hayes honors for roles in Shakespeare's works and modern classics. But catch her in Adventure Theatre's effervescent "If You Give a Pig a Pancake" -- adapted by Marianne Pendino from Laura Joffe Numeroff's children's book -- and you'll swear the actress was born to play a tap-dancing piglet."

There are some concepts that simply defy imagination and must be seen to be believed. The prospect of Jerry Whiddon directing Helen Hayes winner Holly Tywford in a musical adaptation of If You Give a Pig a Pancake is one of them. The wait is over, the show is up, and it’s a riot.
