Hailed in Sojourners magazine as a "wonderfully uplifting theater experience" this dramatic portrait tells the story of the woman the New York Times eulogized as a "nonviolent social radical of luminous personality."

"It's not easy to capture the spirit of a woman nominated for sainthood, but Wagner does it with charm, wit and tremendous faith in the power of her words. Day is fascinating because she was so human and so holy at the same time, and Wagner and her co-writers ... are wise enough to show both sides. They skillfully balance Day's charms, passions, mistakes and misgivings making the point that people who are not perfect in a dogmatically religious sense are still capable of performing great acts of faith and love."

"a charming and compelling warts-and-all portrait," adding that "Wagner's performance is so riveting-she plays, with equal ease, Day as a young Greenwich Village bohemian, as middle-aged radical, and as an elderly wise leader-that even those not entirely sympathetic with Day's sadly unfashionable views on U.S. imperialism and feeding the poor will be moved."
