“As gal pals Helena and Hermia, Rolanda D. Bell and Celeste Kamiya turn dialogue into music with the lovely counterpoint of their voices.”
“Celeste Kamiya commands the stage every time Hermia is anywhere to be seen ... she is impetuous and defiant like the most stubborn of teenagers ... under the spell of Puck’s tricks, she bristles and fights like an alley cat.”
“Celeste Kamiya is a delightfully plucky and voracious Little Red Ridinghood.”
“Red Riding Hood is a character that can easily slip into one-dimensionality, but Kamiya gives an excellent, fully realized performance.”
“Celeste Kamiya is a Little Red Ridinghood of much spunk and spirit who continuously displays a fabulous combination of curiosity, impetuousness, and stubbornness along with a sure-fired ability to express in song a wide range of both child-like and older-than-her-young-years emotions. In her “I Know Things Now,” she sings with both tingle and trepidation after her encounter with the Wolf”
