The Australian singer, dancer, actress replaced the scheduled artist less than a month ago. She didn't know the role and yet she made it hers in an amazing way: since Angela Lansbury's performance, we have not heard such incarnation. Stephen Sondheim made no mistake and he didn't hesitate to let others know that she is "the best Mrs Lovett he has ever heard." This little miracle takes place in Paris so you'd better hurry to grab your tickets. (Le Monde, April 25, 2011)
