Broadway by the Year, The Musicals of 1947
Concert at Town Hall in NYC, March 3, 2008

"Tucked in this sequence, too, was an exquisite performance from Kerry O'Malley of 'The Gentleman is a Dope' from Allegro."  -Andy Propst,
American Theater Web

"Kerry O'Malley's heartfelt rendition of 'How Are Things in Glocca Morra?' was radiant...What better way to end the evening than with Kerry O'Malley, Alexander Gemignani, and the company of singers and dancers combining on 'That Great Come and Get It Day' from Finian's Rainbow!  This was one rousing show!"  -William Wolf,
Wolf Entertainment Guide

"Host Scott Siegel related the events of the show's disastrous opening night in New Haven when Lisa Kirk, in her theatrical debut, got her foot caught in the curtain track and fell into the orchestra pit.  She didn't miss a beat while singing 'The Gentleman is a Dope.'  O'Malley reprised the tune with a free swinging spirit, sans the fall."  -Robert L. Daniels,
Variety

"Kerry O'Malley, the beautiful Irish redhead, sang 'How Are Things in Glocca Morra?'"  -Sandi Durrell, Cabaret Scenes

"Other highlights included...Kerry O'Malley's performance of the Allegro ballad 'The Gentleman is a Dope.'"  -Matt Windman,

"'The Gentleman is a Dope' was well performed by Kerry O'Malley."  Linda Amiel Burns,
TheatreScene.net

"Kerry O'Malley sang a beautifully poignant 'How Are Things in Glocca Morra?'...[and] did a lovely job with 'The Gentleman is a Dope' from
Allegro, nicely conveying equal measures of frustration and longing."  -Jena Tesse Fox, Broadwayworld.com
