London loves Gettin' into the Act! Everybody's Gettin' into the Act: "From
the hugely entertaining title song onwards, Ost picks at the
neuroses of folk, and in particular show folk, with a mixture
of ruthlessness and affection. Ultimately, in the show-stopping
(dare one suggest Lloyd-Webberesque) Don't I Know You?, he seems
to conclude that an acceptance of human imperfection is the
key to achieving relative happiness. The performances are universally
strong and perhaps this is no surprise, since the soundtrack
has 20 Broadway performers, no fewer than six of whom have been
nominated for Tony Awards." "Bob
Ost is an obviously talented individual, shifting easily between
the many different musical styles on display. A show like this
really needs to be seen to be properly appreciated, but until
you get the chance, this likeable CD is the next best thing." |

Phillips has a journey to
take, and she travels with irresistible charm and vivacity, generously
taking her rapt audience with her wherever she chooses to go....
She rocks the house and there is nothing left but to surrender willingly
to her particular brand of vocal magic. She is one of a kind, demands
to be seen, and once seen, will not soon be forgotten.” —Doug DeVita, OOBR “Phillips is absolutely sublime. She captures the essence of high class cabaret. If you haven’t seen her, you are being musically disenfranchised ... run to her next performance!” —George S. Bettinger, Applause! Applause! |
