    "A riveting 90-minute work, [Fondly Do We Hope....Fervently Do We Pray...] immerses its audience in a sprawling yet tautly paced dreamscape...Like any vivid dream, [the scenes] are both strange and familiar as they melt from one to the other...Using luminous projections, incisive spoken word, thrillingly urgent music and, above all, profoundly expressive dance, he raises sharp questions about the nature of justice, personal responsibility and the relentless unfolding of history... From a dizzyingly disparate array of elements, Jones has created a resonant, thought-provoking work, a Lincoln portrait of sometimes-unsettling depth. It is a work well worth seeing. " -- Musical America
