RAGTIME!

    Ragtime!

    ...."Another standout moment is provided by Noll late in the show with "Back to Before," as Mother realizes how the unfolding events have changed her forever. Noll reaches for -- and achieves -- operatic highlights here -- without losing the song's introspective element." Michael Toscano - Theatermania

    .... "Christiane Noll embodies a lovely sense of a trapped woman's awakening." Peter Marks -Washington Post

    .... "Noll endows Mother’s personal and feminist awakening with tenderness and toughness. “I did not expect you to come home a different man,” she tells Father (a finely flinty Ron Bohmer) upon his cold return from the northern reaches, “but I hoped to find you a kinder one.” Alexander C Kafka - DCTheatreScene.com

    .... "Christiane Noll is winning..." Baltimore Sun - Mary Carole McCauley

    .... "Christiane Noll, who has worked at Signature as well as on Broadway, is a magnificent 'Mother.'" PotomacStages.com - Brad Hathaway

    .... "While proper applause can only be given in the theater when dealing with such a significant crowd, nods should be given to Noll in her role as Mother. A lovely presence with a surprisingly large voice, Noll's performance of ''Back to Before'' hits all the marks." Metroweekly.com - Tom Avila

Signature Theatre Presents in Arlington, VA - ACE - RUN HAS ENDED

QUEEN OF ACE
The Signature Theatre Company's current production of the musical Ace boasts some of musical theater's strongest women, and Christiane Noll more than holds her own as Ruth. "She's kind of the heavy of the piece, but it's a role I've wanted to do on stage since I recorded the demo about eight years ago," she says. "In fact, Richard Obecracker told my agent he wrote it for me, and it definitely plays to my vocal strengths. I begin with this full-on diva soprano and end up belting really low. There's even this one moment when I feel I should have Brunhilde horns on."

Still, the score isn't the only reason Noll wanted to do the show. "It's a very inspirational story, and we all believe in it. It's about fathers and sons and patriotism, and it has a lot of sentimentality, which we haven't seen much of lately in musicals," she says. "Plus, when I saw Eric Schaeffer, who I worked with at Signature in The Witches of Eastwick, was directing, I kind of just invited myself into the cast. And we're quite a roomful!"

Audiences who can't make it to Virginia currently have two new opportunities to hear Noll in their living rooms -- on the recording of the Off-Broadway musical Frankenstein and her third solo CD, My Personal Property. "I'd been doing a lot of compilation CDs with John Yap and Jay Records and I told him if we just took a lot of those tracks, I'd have another CD," she says. "What I love best though is that he allowed me to do my specific performance of 'Glitter and Be Gay," which I do in concert. I didn't want be trapped having to sing it in the way other people have. He also asked me to do 'This Is My Beloved,' and at first I hated it -- I'd never sung it before -- but when we did another take, I agreed it was really something."

Meanwhile, Noll will be singing live after Ace closes, including a bunch of symphony concerts and with the New York Pops salute at Carnegie Hall on October 17 as part of the Bernstein: The Best of All Possible Worlds celebration. "I thought they hired me to sing 'Glitter,' but I'm not doing it," she says. "We went through tons of stuff, and instead we chose a really cool version of 'I Can Cook Too,' with a lot of scatting, and some other songs. I think it will be a lot of fun."
