What People Are Saying…

  • Rose Messenger takes the stage with equal command, playing pie shop owner Mrs. Nellie Lovett with comic counterpoint and position […] Her nervous laughter and cherry ebullience is a genuine source of delight as are her comic expressions, line delivery and character posturing and positioning. Vocally, both she McElhaney tackle the vocals of Sondheim's iconic score with celebrated fervor, sweeping surge, playful repartee and showpiece bravura.

    Jim Ruocco (Take 2)

  • Everything about Rose Messenger as Mrs. Nellie Lovett is perfection. From her acting of the comedic elements to the singing of the classic musical theater number “A Little Priest,” this is a performance to remember.

    Nancy Sasso Janis (The Patch)

  • Messenger milks every moment of “Bea’s” character arc and commands the stage with her voice.

    Kirk Sheppard (The Sappy Critic)

  • Rose Messenger (Bea) knocks her big act-one musical number out of the park, “Right Hand Man.

    Nathan Top (League of Cincinnati Theatres)

  • Rose Messenger continues to impress playing older characters- she’s one of those actresses who will continue to find work as she matures into the roles she’s already masterfully playing.

    Kirk Sheppard (The Sappy Critic)

  • Rose Messenger takes the cake as the Governor’s wife, Anna. Her performance is energetic and engaging. You can see every thought she has come right through her face.
