By Ernest Kearney — Bianca Singer has an engaging persona, but that persona seems out of place within her one-woman show Authentic Self: The Quarantine Diaries.
She tells us at the top of the performance that she has just gotten out of a six-year relationship with musical theatre, but from her first song it seems like this was a very one-sided affair. Her singing is not the strongest.
She goes on to tell her stories, but alas, these are not the strongest.
To be painfully honest, and I’m afraid that’s what this job entails, this show was lackluster.
But let me say, throughout it, I did have the sense that beneath all of the lightweight debris she accumulated on stage, there was the promise of… something.
I would advise Ms. Singer, once she stops sticking the sharp pins in the voodoo doll she’s made of me, that she give some serious thought not to what she wants to be to an audience, but what she has to give an audience.
That’s how careers are made.
