In a rave review of "Frances Ruffelle LIVEs in New York" from Logo TV's NewNowNext, Michael Musto called the show "a refreshingly textured and bracing turn. In great voice, she was part chanteuse, waif, siren, vaudevillian, rocker, and wench, as she performed an exotic swirl of songs." It was hailed as one of "the best cabaret shows in NYC" by Time Out New York, "seriously the best show I have seen all season" by Times Square Chronicles, and "a whip-smart evening of pure entertainment" by Theater Pizzazz. BroadwayWorld.com praised her "stunning voice, ingenious musicality and fearless performance."

"Frances Ruffelle LIVEs in New York" is a wildly entertaining and intimate evening of song that whispers seductive secrets, lays bare the naked truth and explodes with the one of a kind bottle rocket charisma that's kept "Frankie's" ardent fans coming back for more since she created the iconic role of Eponine in Les Miserables and turned "On My Own" into one of Broadway's most beloved standards. The show highlights the talents a seasoned performer at the height of her game. Frankie has performed in countless West End shows including Chicago, Pippin and Children of Eden.
