Read the BistroAwards.com Review: “astonishingly supple voice and myriad lyric interpretations…”
Read the CabaretScenes.org Review: “Sassy, touching, intelligent, beautifully gowned, she simply conquered the stage.”
“… doesn’t take herself too seriously while exhibiting perfect comic timingand a touch of sexiness.”
“And oh, does she know how to build a number…transforms from saucy to sizzling…an emotional payoff with the skill and confidence of a Judy Garland or Barbra Streisand.”
