| What the Critics Say... |
"Susannah de Wrixon has really only to sing and talk to conquer her audiences - but she does more. Her voice has that memorable quality of giving little darts of pleasure, it has a velvety texture and slides through the octaves with unforced ease, making every song special.
"Our hostess is a natural, singing in the jazz idiom, always stirring grace notes and variations into the arrangements."
Gerry Colgan - Irish Times |
|
"Every once in a while you get to hear a voice that's a little bit special. Susannah de Wrixon is that kind of woman - jazzy and bluey, silky and sultry. A voice to send you to dreamland happy not sad."
Eugene Moloney - Irish Independent |
|
"De Wrixon has almost mesmerizing in spots, intriguingly realing her choice of numbers with the tale of Lee's life. Susannah's songs varied from joyous to tear jerking."
Peter Keavy - Cabaret Scenes |
|
"Susannah has everything needed to interpret the songs associated with Peggy Lee - voice, timing, a sense of rhythm and a feeling for the nuances of a lyric."
Grainne Farren - Sunday Independent |
|
"De Wrixon's voice is perfectly pitched and beautiful in tone"
Joe Jackson |
|
(As Married As We Get): "under Mark O'Halloran's apt and simple direction Susannah de Wrixon and John Delaney deliver two richly-intertwined and highly comic performances."
David Nolan - Irish Times |
|
(Coriolanus): "There is an extraordinary performance of emotional implacibility from Susannah de Wrixon as Volumnia"
Emer O'Kelly - Sunday Indepdent |
|
(Just a Little One): "It's very, very clear and quite marvellously performed by Susannah de Wrixon and Karen Egan and directed with a sharp edge by Trevor Knight"
Emer O'Kelly - Sunday Independent |
|
(N.C.H.): "A blazing new talent"
Gay Byrne - Sunday Independent |
