Reviews
‘The standout star, however, is Stephanie Lyse as Shoshana, who navigates the tragedy and comedy of Island Song with impeccable comic timing and a brilliant sense of humanity. Lyse weaves a undercurrent of deep pain and insecurity through her monologues, elevating them to a main feature of the play rather than merely a comic interlude'
- Scatterofopinion
‘Stephanie Lyse has wonderful character face and physicality that works perfectly for Andrew Lippa’s Waiting. There is a subtle vibrato to Lyse’s lower register that really colours the tune and contrasts beautifully with the histrionics towards the climax of the story.’
The Stage
‘Stephanie’s boundless confidence and unique body language, but most of all her stunningly beautiful and very powerful voice, deserved the loud ovation. Definitely a star in the making’
StageyLady review
‘Stephanie Lyse, who has never been better and frequently comes close to stealing the show.’
British Theatre
‘Lyse relishes the fantastic role of Shoshana, an over the top woman who is just looking for someone to love her and wild ways and has a wonderful voice, particularly in Sing, but Don’t Tell’
