Wolff - a skilled musical comedy performer who has tread the boards on Broadway and National Tours and is a veteran TV personality - plays her theme both straight and for laughs, interpreting a painfully funny, hilariously sad collection of songs about the many "crimes" we all commit in the name of love: jealousy, betrayal, deceit, revenge and more. The superb repertoire is culled from Broadway, Pop and Great American Songbook and includes music from Kander and Ebb, Joni Mitchell, Cole Porter, The Righteous Brothers and Carrie Underwood to name a diverse few.
Wolff exhibits a spot on understanding of of betrayal and revenge. Could I Leave You by Stephen Sondheim and Other Lady by Ellen Weston and Leslie Gore are exactly what their titles indicate. Wolff serves them up hot." - Front Row Center
