ADDITIONAL PRAISE

“Something’s amiss when the understudy steals the show.  So it was with Shana Farr as Elsie of New York Gilbert & Sullivan’s Production of The Yeomen of the Guard at New York City Center.  Her crystalline soprano and lively stage presence woke up the drowsy proceedings…Rounded acting and singing performances were given by…of course, understudy Farr.” – David A. Rosenberg, Backstage, The Yeomen of the Guard, New York City Center

"Oh my GODDNESS. Shana Farr is magnificent. Her voice has a depth and color rarely heard in legit soprano singing. We all truly felt our feelings with "Whistling In the Dark." Bravo! - Susie Mosher, The LineUp at Birdland Theater

"The pros were nuanced and secure with their technique. Shana Farr was a perfect example of the latter- statuesque, cool, and beautiful. She grabbed your attention immediately and did not let it go. She used her head voice to great effect, bringing something brand new to each song – even to "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." (Arlen/Harburg) Who knew that was even possible?? She made it look effortless." - Mona Finston, Cabaret Hotline Online, Cookie's Corner

“Shana Farr took what might have been maudlin material, the theme from “Somewhere in Time,” certainly a beautiful melody, and enriched it with her gorgeous soprano.  It was a clear-eyed view of gooey material and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.” – Suzanna Bowling, Times Square Chronicles, Hidden Treasures of Larry Kerchner, The York Theatre

"Shana Farr is a most talented and lovely actress with a crystal clear voice that sits right on top of the notes and an attractive sensibility that allows her to deliver the lyrics with wit and warmth and intelligence. She made a perfect Laurey, and I have no doubt that Rodgers and Hammerstein themselves would have enjoyed working with this bright young star." – Bruce Pomahac, Director of Music, Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization, Oklahoma!

"Shana Farr's stirring performance at the Patriotic Pops concert garnered a standing ovation from a record breaking audience of 1,000 cheering fans... Her voice has a power that stunned the unsuspecting audience." –Bill Clark, Columbia Daily Tribune, The Missouri Symphony
