“Disguised
as a swaggering soldier, Amastris (Lucy Schaufer)
sings her heart out with scene-stealing vehemence
as she learns the extent of Xerxes' duplicity.”
“Lucy Schaufer ably negotiates
the treacherous depths of the King’s
long-suffering betrothed Amastris.”
(The Times)
“Mezzo Lucy Schaufer brings
an almost Judy Garland-like punch
to her determination to get her
man back."
(The Independent)
