"Bradbury retains a multifaceted voice, rooted in an assured Broadway-belt sound that suggests she learned a thing or two working with Ethel Merman all those years ago." --Mark Dundas Wood, BistroAwards.com
"The diminutive blond with the husky voice is part seductress, part realist, part survivor, and part fairy spirit, as she enchants the audience with her stories and songs." --Bart Greenberg, NiteLifeExchange.com
"The enduringly charming Lane Bradbury still commands the stage, entertains us, and makes us smile. In the words of Stephen Sondheim, You'll have a real good time, yes sir!" --Bob Ost, Theater Resources Unlimited
