THE SPOKESMAN REVIEW

“The audience embraced [her] with applause from the moment she stepped onstage, before she had uttered a single note. Torres’ Cockney-accented whine is wondrously contrasted when she finally lets loose with her glorious soprano and rewards the audience’s adoration with her powerful belt.

Torres sings showstoppers such as “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?” and “I Could Have Danced All Night” with seeming effortless pleasure. Her scrappy delivery of the more angry numbers, “Show Me” and “Without You” are high points, with goosebump-raising trills and a flair for acting that takes the audience along with her on her rollercoaster of emotions.
