What the occasion was all about, though, was the American musical, as
realized by vocalists Susan Egan, William Michals and Gary Mauer. Egan,
fast-talking herself out of marriage [in "Getting Married Today" by
Sondheim] utterly engaged the house to the last seat. Immediately following the
excellent ensemble singing, she lit on an endearing impersonation of Carol
Burnett, who was an original cast member. Egan, when "popped
out" as in the rocky "Somewhere That's Green" from "Little
Shop of Horrors" and the title song of "Cabaret" can't be
bettered.

… in “Sooner or Later” from the movie “Dick Tracy,”
[Susan Egan’s] charisma and captivating vocal style immediately impressed. Her
multi-faceted characterizations from leading roles in Broadway's “Thoroughly
Modern Millie” and “Cabaret” were electrifying. But Egan's most memorable
moment came as the reticent bride singing “Getting Married Today” from
“Company.” She sang Stephen Sondheim's lightning-quick lyrics with an
auctioneer's skill, and her reaction to contributions from an oblivious
bridegroom (Maguire) and pious church soprano (Lisa Vroman) were priceless.

…the principal beacon of enchantment was Susan Egan, the original Belle in
Broadway's "Beauty and the Beast" and currently Sally Bowles in
"Cabaret." Egan took a night off from 1930 Berlin to spend a few hours
in 2003 Cleveland lending her gleaming voice and charming personality to
heroines in some of Rodgers and Hammerstein's greatest hits.... Purely in song
terms, she's a delight, able to negotiate the music with ease and send the
emotional aspects far across the footlights. Wistful? Egan wraps her voice
around "It Might as Well Be Spring" (from " State Fair").
Ardent? Savor the tenderness with which she shapes "If I Loved You"
(from "Carousel"). Funny? From the way Egan sang "I Cain't Say
No," she would make an adorable Ado Annie in "Oklahoma!"

…time should have stood still so that every terrific Egan moment, and they
were all terrific, could have been savored, if not for eternity for at least a
very long time
Bouncy, pert, full of life, Egan brought to Reno's River Pops presence,
chutzpah, a big voice, heart and lots of interpretive razzle-dazzle. Egan has
star power and such a winning way… she easily won over a tough-but
willing-to-listen crowd, and plied her gift of song to the hushed audience she
held in the proverbial palms of her hands.
From a sultry "All That Jazz," through a wistful "It Might as
Well be Spring," a brassy "Johnny One-Note," and a haunting
"I Dreamed a Dream" the Egan touch made each song glisteningly new and
fresh. [She sang] a dramatic and touching "Don't Cry for Me Argentina"
and a charmingly acted and sung "Adelaide's Lament" from "Guys
and Dolls." A beautiful rendering of "Beauty and the Beast" was
sandwiched between a smashingly sung "Don't Rain on My Parade," and
one of those knockout performances of "Cabaret,” that helped make
Egan's Reno debut not just special, but thrilling.

Long Beach Symphony Orchestra
The evening belonged to Susan Egan, who is one of the brighter stars of the
musical theatre firmament. Possessed of a terrific voice and a warm, natural
stage presence, she handled both her songs and her duties as mistress of
ceremonies with consummate professionalism. Her voice can deliver a
knockout “O Holy Night” and a charming “White Christmas,” while sounding
most at home with contemporary tunes like “All Those Christmas Clichés.”
Egan, who should have been on the LBSO’s POPs! Series long ago, is one classy
performer.
