WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
We're talking mega-talented here. She can belt the bloomers off a brassy show tune with enough socko force to knock Merman out of the balcony, or wail blues and torch songs with enough passion to grow icicles on your spine."
- Rex ReedDebbie Gravitte singing live is the gold standard to which every person who steps up onto a nightclub stage should be held, and it is the very least to which any actor on a stage should aspire."
