Reception

Winebold's direction of The Irish… and How They Got That Way was reviewed positively as providing "comic flair" during "No Irish Need Apply" and "a rich tapestry of song and speech". Reviewer David Finkle stated that "the revered ditties are robustly accompanied by music director Kevin B. Winebold." The Irish Examiner said, "It's just brilliant and it never stops for a minute. The music and the singing is superb and well done."{{cite news

Simon Saltzman stated that Winebold musically directed "the best The Threepenny Opera I've seen ever .... It was Bertolt Brecht's birthday. What a treat to have the score played so expertly and with such gusto by seven superb musicians. In addition, and not incidentally, it was wonderful to hear so much excellent singing without electronic enhancement."
