Darlene is delightful! I am a big fan of Kander & Ebb music, so I loved the musical selections, but she is so much fun! There is a vitality in her music that is absolutely charming. Joe Wicht's accompaniment was exquisite, and vocal numbers that they shared were wonderful. It is a spectacular night of entertainment, not to be missed!Written on Sep 10 2010

Darlene is an immensely talented and versatile performer and Thursday night's preview performance was a solid hit with the audience. Her program was beautifully crafted and presented in all details, including song choices, excellent piano and vocal accompaniement, minimal, but effective stage design and costuming,and good stage direction in a limited space.Darlene is the real star because she puts over each song with her whole being and she loves what she does. Just a terrific show!Written on Aug 27 2010

This lady is very talented and very attractive. It was a wonderful evening. I never thought I'd hear "New York, New York" sung in Serbo-Croatian (?)! The NCTC theatre is perfect for this type of performance.Written on Sep 10 2010
