“You captivated the audience with your presence, with your absolutely wonderfully original premise and concept, and the fascinating, funny yet very moving content it inspired in you.” — Ken Waissman, producer of Grease on Broadway
“Once again, you are my teacher as I watch you perform. How you navigate the stage, share big and small moments, can be naughty and nice, as the situations demand, and you go to dark places.” — Joshua Ellis, Broadway press agent
“Thank you, Kurt, for a terrifically moving, informative, and thrilling evening last night. There was so much I didn’t know and I loved seeing you up there in all your glory still doing it so well. It’s a very engaging show and even people who don’t think they know you will be delighted. Congratulations on such a wonderful accomplishment!” — Mark Sendroff, Broadway entertainment lawyer
“It was so beautifully done – so personal and heartfelt, funny and wise. A true valentine to all those ladies, to performance, to New York, to love and kindness…so many things. You’ve had a remarkable life, with so many gifts – gifts both given and received, both of which you captured so wonderfully in this evening. And what a treat it was to get to hear you sing on top of all that!!” — Will Pomerantz, associate artistic director of Bay Street Theatre
“At age 74, he still possesses a boyish charm and a sweet soul. Though now silver haired, he remains handsome and, if I may say so, dashing. He also exudes a genuineness that can’t be faked. Peterson’s charming trip down memory lane is told in a non-linear manner with enough anecdotes to keep any Broadway aficionado not only entertained but begging for more…Peterson’s rendition of Sondheim’s ‘Losing My Mind’, with lovely accompaniment from Ray Kilday on bass and Peter Sachon on cello, was a highlight, as was ‘I Get Along Without You Very Well’, Hoagy Carmichael’s achingly beautiful ballad.” — Ron Fassler, Theater Pizzaz
“We were entranced. I watched the whole thing with a smile under my mask.” — Nancy Harrow, jazz singer
