Thoroughly engaging and fun show about the vaudeville singer Sophie Tucker. Some cool bio info in addition to fun songs and joke jokes...

This is the second time I saw the show. I enjoyed as much this time as the firs time. Bothe the performer and pianist made a great team. I really thought it was Sophie Tucker on the stage. ...

A wonderful show! The repartee between Laural and Fred is delightful and pitch perfect. Laural as Ms Sophie Tucker was a force to be reconned with. I was entertained, I learned something, I laughed, I was entranced by beautiful songs... A perfect fringe experience!...

I loved this show! Laurel Meade nailed a balance of humor and pathos in her patter and delivered some scorching vocals brilliantly supported by her formidable accompanist. MS. Tucker would be proud! A stellar performance. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT (and I hate everything).
Well produced/directed/performed and conceived! GO! ...

Entertaining and enjoyable cabaret with great old songs and a superb singer/song stylist in Ms.Meade. A fun tribute to one of the greats of show business history-Sophie Tucker....

It feels like Laural has delicately crafted a love-letter to an art form and an artist that feels like it is harder and harder for people to know or remember... but it is shows like Ms Tucker that keeps the spirit of Sophie Tucker and performers like her alive for many decades to come. You cannot miss the chance to hear this woman sing!...

I went in with no expectations (and hardly an idea who Sophie Tucker was), and I was BLOWN AWAY. Laural's and Fred's rich, jazzy tunes are just the icing on the inspiring story of a vaudeville legend made human through her own storytelling. Laural carries on this tradition in a performance that is dripping with sincerity, humor, and charm. ...

Well-written and VERY funny. The show moves at a clip and the audience laughs the entire time. Laural Meade brings to life a legend from another time with material that is relevant, interesting and actually deeply moving. Excellent writing, great songs, a really fun night of theater. The show is really intimate but it could easily be on a bigger stage because it deserves much bigger audiences. People will love it. This is an amazing tribute to a woman who has inspired comedy for decades. Somebody invite Bette Midler!! ...
