This is what Jena Tesse Fox of BroadwayWorld said about Alice Ripley and Emily Skinner in her review of the 2d night of the Broadway Cabaret Festival:
“The high-octane concert let the ladies perform some remarkable solos and duets from new and classic shows. The wide-ranging songlist featured numbers by Sondheim, Menken & Ashman, LaChiusa and Berlin, giving the ladies a wide range of styles with which to show off their vocal and dramatic prowess.”

...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

Emily's about as much of a soprano as she is an ingenue.

Posted: 10/31/06 at 3:30pmSure, it is quite enjoyable. But... she is still a mezzo, bottom line. So is Alice.
