Berlin to Broadway with Kurt Weill
Tin Can Collective
Summer 2004
   
"Wright is always precisely on the note.... She also gets two of the best numbers, 'Surabaya Johnny' and 'Pirate Jenny.' 'Pirate Jenny' is one of the most vicious revenge songs ever written for a woman. Wright surprised me. She starts both numbers almost innocently but builds to chilling climaxes of pain and rage."
- Colin Thomas, Georgia Straight
with Don Noble, Shawn Macdonald, Rebecca Codling and Denis Simpson.

"Katey Wright has a lovely voice and full control of the style, and utterly shines with 'Surabaya Johnny', 'Pirate Jenny' and 'That’s Him'."
- Jerry Wasserman, Vancouver Plays

"Drink in From Berlin to Broadway and you'll be singing the praises of a remarkable musical odyssey. This delightful journey with Kurt Weill and his music as they made their way from Europe to America is tightly directed and beautifully performed."
- Peter Birnie, Vancouver Sun

"... but it's Wright's beautifully subtle portrayal of the pigtailed Lea that lingers. She gazes heavenward so dreamily that you'd swear she was having a divine revelation."
- Leanne Campbell, The WestEnder

"Katey Wright's Léa is almost equally adorable, ... struggling as a single mother with a baby that we never see."
- Jerry Wasserman, Vancouver Plays

"Wright displays her comic gifts ..."
- Peter Birnie, Vancouver Sun
