Michael McElroy has a magical voice!!!
author: Actress/Singer
This is one of my favorite CD's of all time - absolutely one I would bring with me if I was stranded on a deserted island. I buy this as a gift for all of my performer friends who have every CD from every cabaret performer. They never have it and always love it - every time.

Brilliant discovery of emotional treasures encased in a timeless world
author: TYT
The CD has been a new discovery for me and an example as to why soundtracks should be made. The beautiful music on this CD and the vocal timbre of Micheal and cast (incl.Phylicia)makes me truly yearn for the experience in the theatre. AN UNCANNY ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION

Relaxing, moody, better than therapy...
author: Joan McCormack
Just saw the play at Geva Theater in Rochester, and couldn't wait to run out and get the CD. It's one of the most relaxing albums in my collection.
