FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Everyday Rapture

A Semi-Star Torn Between Two Superstars
10 / 10

Her wide-eyed manner, equal parts sexiness and sincerity, could be said to be faux-naïf. But know that there’s nothing cynical about the faux part; it’s a style choice that lets Ms. Scott perform with the sophistication that a New York audience (or rather an audience of New Yorkers) demands. And there’s no denying that when she sings, from a wildly diverse song list, she’s as polished and inventive as the worldliest cabaret artist. Having spent many nights on Broadway stages, she has no difficulty scaling up cabaret intimacy for a house as large as the American Airlines Theater; Ms. Scott naturally translates life size into bigger than life.

Everyday Rapture: Sherie Rene's at The American Airlines
9 / 10

Of course, the Sherie Rene Scott who describes herself on stage as, 'one of Broadway's biggest and brightest semi-stars,' in the enormously entertaining variety hour (and a half) she calls Everyday Rapture, is actually a character created by the Sherie Rene Scott who co-authored the smart, semi-autobiographical musical with Dick Scanlan. Which details are factual and which are, shall we say, enhanced, are for them to know and for us to not give a damn about as we're laughing, tapping our toes and enjoying the fizzy charms of this impeccably funny, semi-funked up chanteuse.

Review - Everyday Rapture: Plain and Fancy
by Kristin Salaky - May 10, 2009


Don't tell anybody in Topeka, but Sherie Rene Scott is currently in her 27th year of rumspringa. But then, since she's only half Mennonite ('Amish Light' she calls it), I suppose different rules apply.
