Sue Mathys is both a singer whose glorious voice fills a stage, and an actress whose in-depth interpretation of a song brings its character and meaning alive […] it takes a powerhouse actress to play and sing the part of another, mad actress. Sue’s closing numbers at Urban Stages – the Desmond character’s “As If We Never Said Good-Bye” and “With One Look” – created a thrilling final.

Mathys has a powerful voice and actress’ ability to mine the most of a lyric and an appealing, relaxed stage presence. I came away again with appreciation of Mathys as an outstanding artist in full command of her voice and her chosen material.

The Swiss singing actress displayed a powerfully versatile voice and jaw-dropping range at her concert at Urban Stages. A seaseoned star in Europe, now living here, she was witty and lyrical in David Yazbek’s “What Was A Woman To Do” (from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), performed the Brecht-Weill “Pirate Jenny” with devastating Teutonic savvy, made Sondheim classics seem new again, and electrifyingly sang both arias from Sunset Boulevard (a favourite role).  Piaf is another role she’s essayed, and she managed to both easily evoke that imperishable chanteuse and make this oft-heard material thrillingly her own.
