Who could ask for anything more considering Music by Jule Styne, Lyrics by Bob Merrill, and updated Book by Harvey Fierstein (based on the original classic by Isobel Lennart) are brought to the epitome of excellence by exemplary expert Katerina McCrimmon (as Fanny Brice) and Company. Izaiah Monetaque Harris (as Eddie Ryan), Melissa Manchester (as Mrs. Brice), and Stephen Mark Lucas (as Nick Arnstein) are commanding, compelling, captivating, charismatic consummate pros who steal every scene they're in.

Choreographer Ellenore Scott, Tap Choreographer Ayodele Casel, Costume Designer Susan Hilferty, and Music Director/Conductor/Keyboardist Elaine Davidson are characters in themselves, raising the bar and taking us to a whole new level of profound, prolific, polished, precise proficiency.

I could write a treatise on Katerina but suffice it to say, she is a true treasure, a gorgeous gem, a fantabulous find who fits the challenging role of Fanny like a glove. She had me at hello and knocks every note right out of the park with her A+, ace, adept, adroit, astonishing, astounding artistry.

Katerina delivers elan, panache, pizazz, vim and vigor giving Fanny her own unique style, sass, and swagger. She is a stellar, sterling, stunning, striking, smashing star born right before our eyes. There aren't enough adjectives in the universe to describe her flawless, faultless, peerless, matchless, impeccable performance.

Stand out songs guaranteed to leave you speechless and breathless include: People, Don't Rain On My Parade, Who Are You Now?, I'm the Greatest Star, and Sadie, Sadie.
