Faye Tozer is such a talented person, and I thourght she was fantastic! It was so emotional, and Faye made is seem so real. Her voice was amazing, so 10/10!

 

Barbara Moulton
I saw Over the Rainbow at Lichfield Garrick Theatre recently and thought it was an excellent production of the life of Eva Cassidy. Faye Tozer was brilliant and every actor/actress was very talented, they were excellent. Is it possible to buy a CD of the music from the show - that would be great to hear all the songs from the show again? What a brilliant show, I would see it again!

 

Kevin Flannigan
Absolutely amazing...incredibly moving and filled with real talent. Faye was quite brilliant as Eva, but the whole show oozed quality, charm and emotions that for some were almost too much to bear. The best piece of theatre I have seen for some time and one of the best performances ever!


Sian Davies-Bunny

The show was amazing. It brought many of the members of the audience to tears, especially the closing scenes. I personally empathized with Eva's character during her younger days and her relationship with her father. It was a spectacular show, one which I highly recommend.

 

James O'Connell
Absolutely amazing show, very moving throughout. Faye was outstanding, what a fantastic voice, actually gave me goosebumps. Would love to see it again but only just found out about it and it's nearing the end of the tour. Would be good if it was extended!!

Elaine Hunter
I wasn't quite sure what to expect but the show was fantastic. Faye was brilliant as Eva and her voice perfect. I would love to go and see the show again I enjoyed it that much. All the cast did a great job and the way the story was told was unique to anything else I have seen. Well done and keep touring so I can get a chance to see this wonderful production again.

Literally just got back from seeing over the rainbow tonight. I was blown away, faye's voice is awesome and so so moving. She did eva proud! the rest of the cast were equally talented and i just cant express how amazing the whole show was, there wasnt a dry eye in the house during " i know you by heart" a wonderful, wonderful production i won't ever forget!


Rachel Walsh

I knew very little about Eva Cassidy before I saw the show, I went because I love the theatre. All I can say is wow! a beautiful, tragic story full of memorable and haunting songs. Faye was outstanding in every way possible-it was like the first time she'd sung these songs-such emotion and true feeling. I came away wanting to find out and hear more about Eva Cassidy.


Alan Foster

I won a competition in our local newspaper to see the show with my wife and just want to say we thought it was fantastic! The best show we have ever seen and we would recommend it for all to see. All the cast were great and very talented and Faye Tozer was brilliant. It was our 10th wedding anniversary on the same night as we saw the show and it really did make our day (including the signed programme, by all the cast!). Thanks to all the cast and the Tour Manager who made our evening.

 

Chris O'Sullivan
An excellent show with an excellent cast! Faye Tozer really shone like a true star and it is great to see this former popstar etching out a great career in the theatre for herself. A moving story and performance with perhaps the most fitting song list imaginable. It is not often a play/musical receives such a heartfelt standing ovation from an audience. Definetly a must see.

 

Paul Madden
What do you get when you put the arrangments of Eva Cassidy's songs and the voice of Faye Tozer? A GREAT EMOTIONAL NIGHT OUT!!!! This is a great night out. You will be laughing, crying and by the end of the night you will be on your feet giving this incredible cast and production a standing ovation


D Kennedy

Faye was excellent. hope she continues as eva cassidy.


Caroline Crump

Oh My Goodness! This show touched me so much, I literally cried for the last 35 minutes of the show! Such a talented cast and Oh my goodness Faye, what an outstanding actress as well as singer, she was amazing in steps and shes even more amazing now! I would deffinately see this show again, even if it meant crying for the last 35 minutes. Love the show Love Faye! 10/10.

 

Jane Brueton
I'm an avid theatre and concert goer with eclectic taste (in the past fortnight I've seen We Will Rock You, Omid Djalilli and Barbara Dickson!). However, last night's performance of 'Over the Rainbow' will stick in my mind for many years to come. WOW, not a good enough word but WOW. I don't know what I was expecting but I certainly wasn't expecting such a versatile, enthusiastic and talented cast. Faye took my breath away with both her voice and her beauty but her fellow cast members not only supported they REALLY enhanced this production. I rarely stand up for ovations but I was first up on the front row with tears still streaming down my face. I wish the cast continued success, you certainly deserve it.

 

Hannah Tilly
I would have never have believed that someone could do Eva such justice - how wrong I was, I only wish that there were some more local venues (Sheffield/Chesterfield) because I know so many friends would love to experience such a fantastic show. Thanks to all the cast - definitely 10 out of 10.

Fantastic show. faye was amazing. her singing was perfect and she is awesome- such a tribute to eva. have booked to go again in hull in february. cannot wait to share the experience with my daughter who missed the first performance.

 

Laura Williams
Wow what a fantastic show and performance from all the cast especially faye.i have been a fan for 10 years and can honestly say this has got to be the best show i have ever seen. it moved me and everyone else to tears in the audience. Your voice and presence were amazing faye, you are one of our countrys best singers and performers and having met you outside the theatre last night i must say one of the most down to earth polite friendly charismatic people i have ever met and thank you for taking the time to speak to me and my mum. you made my night. x

 

Mike Neild
One of the most compelling pieces of theatre I've ever seen - and I've seen a lot. Faye Tozer was simply outstanding. Not only was she superb in vocally recreating Eva Cassidy but her performance in the heart-breaking scene as the tortured Eva Cassidy laments her fate was almost unbearably poignant. There was excellent support from the rest of the cast and the hugely talented musicians. They all richly deserved their standing ovation at the end. I shall be taking a coach party to Lancaster in March and can't wait to see it all again. Magical theatre!

A truly remarkable piece of theatre and incredibly moving. Faye Tozer was outstanding both vocallyand in her portrayal of the closing days of Eva Cassidy's tragic life which was so poignant it was almost unbearable to watch. A great supporting cast too. The performers richly deserved the standing ovation they received at the end. I'm taking a party of 40 to see the show again in Lancaster in March and I am eagerly looking forward to it.

 

Rob Smith
Traveled from Coventry to see the show in southend and was well worth the journey. Faye was outstanding as Eva with a strong cast to support her it moved the two of us to tears but in a good way and would tell anyone to see it. Also met Faye by chance after the show and what a lovley prson she is, we will be going again to see the show.

 

Jean Moss
Theatre has always been my greatest passion, and I can say without any reservation , that Over the Rainbow was the most moving production that I have ever seen. The casting was wonderful and Faye as Eva was just awesome. This production had most of the audience moved to tears and I can never recall seeing any other show having half that effect on an audience. We are hoping that a DVD of the show will be released, as that music will haunt us forever. Congratulations to all concerned, but especially to Faye who has proved that she has the talent to become one of the top ten performers of this Country. I am now going to book to see the show again in Wellingborough, and cannot wait to see it all again!

 

Lisa Forrester
What a truly spectactular evening, I was blown away. Faye Toyzer who plays Eva was outstanding. The best show I've ever seen.

 

Alwin Limburn
Really breath taking and very moving.

 

Aisling Martin
I'm from the south east of Ireland and had the pleasure of attending last Thursday's performance of 'Over the Rainbow' in the Theatre Royal in Waterford. It was a great performance and Ms. Faye Tozer was a credit to herself and to yourselfs for casting such an entertaining cast. I was just enquiring about the Spring 2008 dates. Was there any plans to bring such a great show to Ireland.

 

Les Ansell
We saw this production last night and i cannot recomend it highly enough. If i could afford to i would go again tonight. I thought the whole show was really well done and the leading lady was fantastic. All credit to the whole production, highly rated, very well done. 10 out of 10 really enjoyed every second!
