"Broadway-caliber crooner"
Von Vett's torchy "Blues in the Night" in Act 2 was strong and sassy, showing off her voice's sheer, unrestrained power.
Reyna Von Vett, gone from Denver stages for far too long, plays bossy, proper older sister Kaye, unleashing a voice of clarity and resonance on a surprisingly lusty Where the Boys Are.
Reyna Von Vett has a mischievous smile, a warm presence and a terrific vocal range — whether she's singing high in her head or calling resonance from deep in her chest.
Von Vett is a savvy stage veteran with a siren of a voice.
Von Vett, an alto, was my favorite of the bunch, especially when she belted out old favorites such as “I’ll Be Seeing You.” I wasn’t surprised to discover that she sang at the 2001 Presidential Inaugural Ball.
“Her voice is like a hot knife through butter, and smooth as silk.”
“Her voice is rich and layered--She can be sweet and silky when she sings a love song or
belt out earth and fire in sliding, jazzy notes...”
Von Vett obviously relishes the role of the wealthy, thrice-married divorcee. She has fun with the character and the audience has fun watching her, especially during one hot dance number.
Reyna Von Vett is a knockout performer
One of my favorite characters in the cast is Tanya, played by Reyna Von Vett, who joined the show last year.
Tanya is a happy-go-lucky gold digger who views life as a party, and Vett has captured her essence perfectly. She has a lot of fun with her role, almost as much fun as the audience has humming along with the songs of ABBA.
