**Reviews of the 54Below Concert CD; Short quotes: “TONYA & NANCY’ GET HIGH MARKS” (Broadway World) “Stunningly awesome” (Broadway to Vegas)

CD Review in BROADWAY WORLD excerpts:
 “TONYA & NANCY GET HIGH MARKS… Searle and Teoli have some serious musical chops: the music is driving and distinctive.. Searle expertly uses specific language to HIGHLIGHT that Tonya and Nancy are two sides of the same coin…Tonya and Nancy hits nearly all its “components” marks: transitions, skills, composition (as in structure), musical interpretation, and performance…:
Worsham & Spencer are utterly magnetic as characters we think we already know…THE SCORE HAS MOMENTS OF PURE BRILLIANCE.

“
CD REVIEW IN ‘BROADWAY TO VEGAS’- Excerpts: “
Every part of this recording is deliciously entertaining. ..fresh, clever, entertaining, funny
and topical….The lyrics are insightful, and sad…The script covers a lot of territory and does so
with the artistic skill o f an Olympic champion….The expert musical compositions and in between 
commentary results in the listener having a better understanding and compassion for both 
skaters….The CD is stunningly awesome.”
