Reviews by Show Title

AIDA
"Montego Glover is a fascinating amalgam,
small and lithe enough to suggest a warrior princess itching for action, yet with reserves
of old-soul gravitas, her voice sounds like an
entire gospel choir packed within her small
buff frame."

Boston Globe        

 

"The star of this vehicle is the tiny, vital and enchanting Montego Glover, as the Nubian Princess. Her Aida is splendific - a true wonder to observe. Her voice is radiant and she sings with her entire body giving her characterization of the princess/slave an almost spirtitual quality. Glover is a talent we will be in awe of for years to come."

Wichita Eagle & The Oklahoman       

        


 

Memphis
The real star of the evening is Glover, who possesses a dynamite voice that rattles the rafters.  She's a bit Diana Ross, a bit Tina Turner, and a bit Aretha.  Glover impresses from her first notes in the opening number "Underground", gets it all gospel with "Make Me Stronger", and belts with "Love Will Stand When All Else Falls."  Her dramatic passion in "Colored Woman" energizes the very air of the theatre providing goosebumps.

TheaterMania        

 

"Montego Glover is, quite simply, a star. Every time she opens her mouth you'll feel the hair on the back of your neck stand up, so pure is her voice and so direct are her emotions."

Boston Herald        


Smokey Joe's Cafe     
"Glover shows that she's a star on
the rise...she combines arresting presence with imposing vocal ability.  Her physicality is easily sensual
rather than basely sexual, making
                                    her all the more appealing."

Sacramento Bee        


 

Once On This Island
"Montego Glover punches up TiMoune's idiosyncrasies with her coltish movements
and wide-eyed quicksilver smiles suggesting
a shy charisma that might seduce a haughty aristocrat."

Washington Post        


Saint Heaven
"As Eshie, Montego Glover is a real find.  Her powerful voice, soulful acting, and radiant look create the kind of character you miss when she's not on stage."

 

The Hour        


 

Dreamgirls
"Montego Glover is a real highlight as
the youngest Dreamette, Lorrell. She
is cute and gawky early on...and shows Lorrell's growth later as she learns life's lessons the hard way."

TalkinBroadway.com        


Cookin' At The Cookery
"The evening's reigning champ was Glover. 
In the show's most jaw-dropping vocal stunt,
she transforms from a willowy young woman
who often sounds like a soprano into a credible Louis Armstrong, with his patented growl."

LA Times        


 

The Pirates of Penzance
"Montego Glover is a young woman whose dancing, expressive voice and saucy smile make her a delectable modern Mabel.  Somebody grab this child quick!"
