OKLAHOMA! Portland Center Stage"Hicks'’s Curly ardently pursued the reserved and beautiful farm girl Laurey, played Brianna Horne, and their barbed exchanges and posturing easily won over the audience."-Oregon Music News"The three principals were terrific: Rodney Hicks as Curly, Brianna Horne as Laurey and Joy Lynn Matthews-Jacobs as Aunt Eller. Hicks (whose Broadway credits include “The Scottsboro Boys” and “Rent”) has a fine voice and great energy, and he looks great as a cowboy (costumes by Jeff Cone). Horne projects the youthfulness that makes her initial rebuff of Curly make sense and also her fear of the farmhand Jud. And Matthews-Jacobs provides the moral center of the play and many of the one-liners in an acute performance."-Oregon Arts Watch"Hicks is particularly engaging, giving Curly an appealing mix of boyishness and earnestness. Brianna Horne similarly blends sweetness and spine as Laurey."-OregonianBEST OF BOTH WORLDSAmerican Repertory Theater"Singers make several tunes hit the rafters, including Bayardelle's "The Way I Love You," Davis' "Let a Little Sunshine In" and Brianna Horne's second-act numbers."-Frank Rizzo, Variety"Horne and Lawrence Stallings (as Tariq) deliver a sensational ballad..."-Boston Theatre ReviewALL SHOOK UPOgunquit Playhouse"Danielle Lee Greaves and Brianna Horne, who play Sylvia and her daughter Lorraine, deliver soulful renditions of ''There's Always Me'' and ''It's Now or Never.'' -Portland Press Herald“Here's a drive-by rundown of the shows exceptional talent — every last one deserving top billing. Danielle Lee Greaves, "of the golden voice," played Sylvia, Brianna Horne, is wild Lorraine; Christopher Kale Jones is sweet Dennis; Morgan Karr is dweebie Dean, all of them to perfection”-Seacoast OnlineTHE THREEPENNY OPERAWagner Mainstage"Show standouts include Brianna Horne, as Jenny, who delivers some of the shows most compelling and interesting moments. When shes on stage, somehow the lights seems brighter because of her presence. Horne has a voice with a range of colors that adds monumentally to the eeriness of songs like Pirate Jenny and enhances the Tango Ballad."-Staten Island AdvanceAIDATRI-ARTS Sharon Playhouse"Horne is a luminous Aida and sings with a rich, warm soprano that captivates the audience with each song. She handles the music's sometimes tricky pop rhythms like a pro."-Westport NewsMY BROADWAY DEBUT--CBS"We were truly wowed by Brianna's performance of the show of Friday, as well as [yesterday] mornings telecast. Such presence and talent--she, no doubt, will have a bright and promising future."-Alan Cohen, Dir. of Communications at The League of American Theatres and Producers, Inc.
