In many ways Shana Farr and Steve Ross are a study in performance opposites. She has a powerful contralto replete with back of throat vibrato, Ross a voice that expresses with decidedly light touch. Farr’s face animates emotion, Ross subtly conveys feeling with a sigh, a pause, a lilt. As
A musical of tongue-in-cheek divas, this buoyant import delivers what it promises: six irreverent women claiming their place in history, “live in consort” to the visceral beat of a hot band. Hello New York, how’re you doin’? they ask. Remember us from PBS? they sing. It doesn’t seem to matter
