"Rachel York, the Julia Roberts of the American musical stage, is simply magnificent, never less than stunning in appearance, and singing and acting with a beguiling air of eternal confidence and technical mastery. York's Dixie Wilson is a beautiful, fragile yet strong creature, struggling for stardom and dignity in her corner of the world and yet thrown into another she doesn't understand. She is giving a performance that demands to be seen and savored. A truly remarkable star 'turn.' "

"If director Tommy Tune were to turn the show into a concert performance for leading lady Rachel York, he might have a hit on his hands. York is one of the finest singers I've seen on any stage. Not only does she have a fabulous voice, she makes an intense and detailed connection to the lyrics – and has a stellar stage presence to boot. The high point of Turn of the Century is York's rendition of the classic 'Willow Weep for Me.' York's plaintive delivery in this creatively arranged number recalls the best recordings the young Barbra Streisand made with musical director Peter Matz in the early 1960s. She makes Turn of the Century worth sitting through."
