"The afternoon invoked the golden days when talents such as Bobby Short and John Wallowitch held forth at the piano." ~ Cabaret Scenes "Ward’s distinctive wit was evident, with his deadpan comic delivery landing every time." ~ BroadwayWorld

"...a satisfying show from a seasoned pro venturing into headlining as a solo vocalist. I applaud Ward’s adventurousness, as well as his gracious manner, and I hope this won’t be just a one-time thing." ~ Bistro Bits

"Think John Wallowitch, Charles DeForest, Steve Ross et al. He’s a charmer with several tricks up his sleeve." ~ Times Square Chronicles
