Le nozze di Figaro Reviews
North Carolina Opera
"There is much talent on the stage. Thompson as the titular Figaro, and soprano Cadie J. Bryan as Figaro’s betrothed Susanna, are especially magnetic, in this reviewer’s opinion. They both have physical acting skills that enliven their performance, complementing their especially clarion voices that fill the hall."

"The two sopranos, Cadie J. Bryan (Susanna) and Kathryn Henry (Countess Almaviva), acquit themselves with distinction, and their canzonetta duet in Act 3 is a highlight of the production...Both ladies have an abundance of clear, sweet sounds and power throughout their ranges, and the combination of their voices is ravishing. So, too, is the way their voices mix with Thompson’s."
