"Morgan was particularly inspiring. Director Eric Gibson created a very physical show and Morgan rolls with the necessary looseness of a young boy, but the mezzo-soprano sang like a seasoned vet."
"The major energy driving the action came from mezzo soprano Kara Morgan, who has a warm, attractive voice fully expressive of confidence and ease with the world, so we never had problems seeing her Hansel as the hero of the opera. Morgan's sense of timing was impeccable."
"Top marks go to Kara Morgan as Lucretia, not only in the vocalization but her acting in general really brought home the power of the piece."
