REVIEWS

JERSEY BOYS

“An emotional duet with the loss of a youthful child sends tears and chills down one’s soul.’

— SoCal Thrills 

“… daughter Francine (the versatile Maggie Ek) whose heart-wrenching account marks the emotional peak of the show with “Fallen Angel.”’

— LA Excites

YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN

“Maggie Ek is Inga, replete with her charming Transylvanian accent in tow. Having the appearance of a ballerina, but the tongue-in-cheek instincts of Zsa Zsa Gabor, Ek admirably balances sultry suggestions with the satirical. Ek’s interpretation transcends the usual dim-wittedness of the character; here, Inga wins the audience’s appreciation by also being honest and unimpeachably passionate... — Ek evokes oohs and aahs with crystal-clear vocal chops and an incredible yodel.”

— LA Excites

“Maggie Ek as Inga is stunningly gorgeous with a strong ringing voice; she yodels up a storm and offers the best example of dancing that is lithe and powerful.”

— Stage and Cinema

“Maggie Ek is delicious as Dr. Frankenstein’s voluptuous young assistant, Inga… The deadpan brio friskiness of her “Roll in the Hay” is a high point.”
