“Aisha Jackson (Felicia) is not just incredibly talented; she is also a beautiful woman that we could all fall in love with, so it's no surprise that Huey zeros in on her as soon as he meets her. Jackson has the voice of a songbird, the grace of a Goddess, and a "light up the room" smile. Oh. And she can also dance. Like a star..”

— Bill Wheeler (Theater Colorado)
