"Two older players take more than their share of fun in multiple roles. Equaling (powerhouse baritone, David Studwell), is Rebecca Carr in three roles, starting with the boozing music teacher who bellows, “Sex and art don’t mix, otherwise I would have gone right to the top.”

Susannah
“Rebecca C. Carr makes a wonderful Susannah. Singing and acting sensitively, she charts the girl’s transformation from innocence to bitterness with heartfelt urgency. Carr’s pure, focused soprano soars through Susannah’s vocal lines. She floats lovely high pianissimo’s, but her voice also opens up in full-throated climaxes.”

Violetta
"Rebecca Carr made a touching Violetta. Her portrayal grew in stature as the evening proceeded. Carr sang brilliantly in the party scene in the first act. Her bright-toned soprano took on poignant overtones in the duet with Alfredo's stern father in act two. She touchingly suggested Violetta's joy at her reunion with Alfredo and then conveyed the anguish of the death scene."

"Rebecca Carr, a lovely blonde soprano with a radiant smile, made an auspicious debut with the (Ocean City) Pops. "Come scoglio" crackled with dramatic intensity and Carr gave the proper frivolity to "Art is Calling for Me." Her interpretation (of The Merry Widow's "Vilia") communicated very well, and she made good use of her soaring upper register."

"Soprano Rebecca C. Carr brought the whole concert to a grand finish with one of those operatic outbursts that would have left her surrounded by flying flowers if we still lived in the days when gentlemen wore boutonnieres in their lapels."
