This quirky musical retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale The Little Match Girl fuses jazz, rock and show tunes and had its world premiere at the Daryl Roth Theatre off-Broadway in 2006 to critical acclaim: 

"more artfully crafted and engaging than virtually all the standard-mold musical coming out way these days" Charles Isherwood, The New York Times

"Striking 12 is indeed a holiday show that has more heart and fun than most of the manufactured entertainments competing for your consumer dollars" Frank Scheck, The New York Post
