What the press had to say.....
"it easily qualifies as one of the year’s most extravagantly entertaining new musicals."
Ben Brantley
New York Times
"a wickedly funny, wonderfully touching show"
Joe Dziemianowicz
New York Daily News
"Scott is sexy, funny, self-deprecating and sophisticated all at once
Elisabeth Vincenetelli
New York Post
"it’s hard not to like such a likable star and the equally likable personality she creates"
Jeremy Gerard
Bloomberg
"Vain and vulnerable, silly and sexy, wistful and wise, she's (Sherie Rene Scott) a mess of contradictions as riveting as Bernadette, Patti, or any of those divas who don't need three names but just one."
Adam R. Perlman
Back Stage
" It's rapturous entertainment."
Michael Kuchwara
Associated Press
"Smart, funny and deftly balanced in its blend of self-exposure and theatrical artifice"
David Rooney
Variety
