POSTCARD FROM MOROCCO
“Ryan Colbert made a feast of quirky dramatic contrasts with her Lady With A Cake Box, while smoothing it with a velvety vocal line.” -Arts Knoxville
“The cast, in the performance I saw Thursday, was uniformly good and easily heard when they told their individual story. Ryan Colbert, singing the role of the Lady with the Cake Box, actually carried around the cremated remains of her lover to accompany her on the travels they had envisioned taking together. It was both a morbid and endearing moment.” -Knox TN Today
NEW WORKS CONCERT:
NEW YORK OPERA FEST
"The second part of the program opened with J. L. Marlor on her electric guitar, using the language of a prompt she put out to describe experiences in which words fail. Soprano Ryan Colbert rendered these words with a touching tenderness" -Berkshire Fine Arts
SUOR ANGELICA
"In a small role as Suor Dolcina, Ryan Colbert steals some moments for herself by channeling Kathy Najimy’s comic character in “Sister Act." -Arts Knoxville
