TAMARA RYAN
"Both Tamara Ryan, as the independent-minded Della, and Lindsay Conrad, as the formidable 'Vampire Naysayer,' offer breathtakingly solid sopranos that soar and trill without ever becoming shrill or thin. Both develop three-dimensional characters, each with a wildly different approach to defying conventions."
- THE BOSTON GLOBE
"Her singing was compelling and her vivacious interpretation called to mind the comic genius of Madeline Kahn."
- THE BOSTON MUSICAL INTELLIGENCER
"Tamara Ryan as the disturbed jilted spinster Miss Aurelia Havisham is a fantastic singing actor in this one-woman piece written for soprano. Ryan conveyed so many colors of the character and gave us more than an inkling of her character’s early signs of madness even before her wedding day trauma. There is much to be conveyed."
- THE THEATRE TIMES
"The two actresses delivered performances with an honesty that was endearing and convicted."
- ARTS IMPULSE
"Jared Levin and Tamara Ryan make a fetching pair both as Theseus and Hippolyta and as Oberon and Titania."
- THE BOSTON GLOBE
"Performers of note: Tamara Ryan (Della) has an effortless soprano and expresses juvenile naiveté even as she demands personhood from her father...."
- NEW ENGLAND THEATER GEEK
"A performance that popped”
- THE THEATRE TIMES
"She was followed by the two witches (Tamara Ryan and Roselin Osser) and together, their 'The Queen of Carthage, whom we hate' was wickedly funny and dark.”
- THE BOSTON MUSICAL INTELLIGENCER
"Her flashes of temperament complemented a softer side. Ryan negotiated the coloratura demands without apparent fear."
