Picture

"Norah Long was dazzling as Marietta.  With her brilliant soprano and facility for coloratura, it would be hard to imagine a finer performance. She created a vivid character full of wit and spunk."
                                                                 – William Randall Beard, Minneapolis Star Tribune


"An effervescent performance in the title role. The lithely tomboyish Long brings an energetic insouciance to the role and fills the stage speaking with a ridiculous Italian accent that has just the right amount of outlandishness, singing in a ringing coloratura that is soaring and seemingly effortless. Every time Long sings "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life" it is both lovely and so schmaltzy that it brings smiles."   – David Hawley, St. Paul Pioneer Press


ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS BEST BETS:
If the show that launched "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life" sounds too archaic for your tastes, rest assured one of the area's great musical theater talents, Norah Long, sings the lead role, and that bodes well.  – Rob Hubbard
