About me
REVIEWS:-*"Widow Twankey is played by the delicious David Phipps-Davis, and he has to be by far one of the best dames I’ve seen for many a year. With more than a passing resemblance to Alan Carr, he is also possessed of a voice that wouldn’t go amiss in some of the great Opera Houses of the land." - Neil Mcfarlane, West End Wilma
*"Phipps-Davis is a sound comic presence." - Kieron Quirke, Evening Standard
*"David Phipps-Davis’ Mr Bumble registering more strongly in the singing stakes than I’ve ever heard this role performed before." - Mark Shenton, The Stage
*"Rebecca Lock and David Phipps-Davis are terrific as the unhappily married Bumbles." - Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
*"David Phipps-Davis (Mr Bumble) has a fine operatic baritone" - Jonathan Brown, The Independent
*"David Phipps-Davis and Olga Marie Pratt were equally hilarious as the sparring Harry and Sarah, and did a lot to set the pace of the evening." - S. Campbell, www.whatsonstage.com
*"Lanky Antony Stuart-Hicks and stockier David Phipps-Davis win the Elkin accolade for being the best pair of ugly sisters I have ever seen. And it isn't just their wonderful make-up and colourful, outrageous clothes. Their comic sparring with each other, suggestive body language and range of facial expressions put them in a league of their own." - Susan Elkin, The Stage
*"A wonderful dame, full of energy and charm, with the most wonderful voice. He trained as a classical singer at Guildhall and uses his voice perfectly in the role." - Bob Heather, Sardines Magazine
*"...full-blooded performances, not least from David Phipps-Davis’s as parody poet Bunthorne, a beauty-spotted, portly dandy. He is diminutive in stature but big in personality and pointed in performance." - Howard Loxton, British Theatre Guide
*"David Phipps-Davis bulking out the Bunthorne role like a demented Dame Hilda Bracket... physically and vocally impressive" - Clive Burton, Theatreworld Internet Magazine
*"David Phipps-Davis... has a superb voice and brought an almost endearing interpretation to his role." - Sheila Stratford, www.thepublicreviews.com
*"Ms D. D. Cupps strode into the spotlights and into my hatchet-faced wall of scepticism as I dared her to entertain me. And the truth is, she won. The evening was something along the usual lines - show tunes, Sondheim, etc - not too important, but what was important was the way she handled a tired format. An Intimate Evening with D. D. Cupps was exactly what it said it would be, but also a very professional, charming and entertaining intimate evening... Ms D. D. Cupps is, simply put, a professional and accomplished entertainer. She has a great wardrobe, a great singing voice, a great performing ability and, yes, she's a great, profane, catty, affectionately spiteful and hugely lovable drag queen. So cool she scored points when forgetting the words, making the evening more fun; so laid back she laughed at herself and got someone up from the audience to sing along when she couldn't recall the lyrics. Despite an early warning that anyone whose mobile phone went off would be ritually humiliated, D. D. was actually quite nice to her audience. Maybe I saw her on a good night, but I'd suggest she just might be an Exemplar of the Genre. Catch her before she's on first-name terms with Cilla." - David Gleeson, www.remotegoat.co.uk
