Kayla Boye is a powerhouse performer whose ability to step inside the soul of her characters will astound you, beginning from her intimately revealing portrayal of legendary Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor in 2022 to her current tour-de-force performance as Hollywood and Broadway dancing icon Ann Miller. I enjoyed Kayla's enthusiastic tap dancing and her recounting so many stories about how Ann, starting at age 14, met and danced her way through RKO Studios, MGM, and then took Broadway by storm. I expect this show to win top Fringe honors this year....

Kayla Boye is talent wrapped in beauty. This show concerns Ann Miller, unknown to many today, she was among the brightest stars during Hollywood’s Golden Age. With Shake It Away, Boye shows you why that was. A superb show!...

What a powerful solo entry at the Hollywood Fringe by triple-threat performer, Kayla Boye!
