Reviews
The Jewish News – 12/16/2022
“…the most impressive performance comes from Ayvah Johnson as the childhood version of Tina. Her powerful voice and spunky stage presence are the embodiment of star quality.”
The Oakland Press – 12/7/2022
“Ayvah Johnson as the young Anna Mae Bullock busting a soulful chorus”
MD Theatre Guide – 11/18/2022
“Ayvah Johnson as young Anna Mae was especially impressive, and she has a bright future ahead of her with those vocal cords. She wows within her first few moments on stage.”
Washington City Paper – 10/18/2022
“Ayvah Johnson, as young Anna Mae, is a superstar in the making, getting both her onstage audience and the crowd in the theater riled up from the first note she belts.”
Metro Weekly – 10/12/2022
“…a delightful Ayvah Johnson…”
The Zebra – 10/12/2022
“…Standouts are…Ayvah Johnson – a tiny thing with a huge voice who plays Tina as a child…”
Harvard Crimson – 9/27/2022
“Stunningly, one of the cleanest and most powerful voices on stage is that of Little Anna-Mae, played by Ayvah Johnson. In an early scene at church, Little Anna-Mae belts out her first chillingly impressive notes. In the span of only a few minutes, she manages to express the complex rollercoaster of emotions of a young child who longs to feel joy, but is put through hell over many years.”
BroadwayWorld Rhode Island – 9/19/2022
“…an incredible voice in Ayvah Johnson…”
Providence Journal – 9/16/2022
“And, Ayvah Johnson, who plays young Tina, has a power in her voice that belies her age. She is someone to keep an eye on.”
Cape Cod Times – 9/15/2022
“…young Ayvah Johnson playing young Anna-Mae Bullock (Tina’s given name) is a wonder with a sit-up-and-take-notice voice”
Edge Media Network – 9/15/2022
“…Ayvah Johnson gives it her all…”
