The Press says:

"Hughes has an incredible voice and knows how to use it ...
a stunning vocalist with a great sense of wit, Annie Hughes does one of the best shows in town."
~The New York Post

"I ran out of adjectives years ago trying to describe her show-stopping coloratura work and the sheer beauty of her voice...arguably one of today's finest voices in cabaret - She could probably sing the telephone book in Gregorian chant and get away with it."
~John Hoglund, Back Stage

"Annie Hughes is a contemporary songwriter's dream...With her strong and beautiful soprano voice, she can be touching or very funny and manages satiric numbers like a charm."
~Peter Leavy, Cabaret Scenes

"She creates comic thrills with her trills."
~Variety

"Long known in cabaret circles as an excellent singer,
Hughes has a gift for comedy.
It was nice to see her back on stage where she belongs."
~Show Business

"An imposing blonde who knows how to have fun -
lots of laughs promised."
~The Village Voice

"I especially enjoyed seeing Annie Hughes back where she belongs - behind a mike in a cabaret room. Once again, Annie proved that she still has some of the best vocals in cabaret."
~Cabaret Hotline

"A voice, beauty, sense of humor and personality all rolled into one person. Her voice is like an angel dancing over the tip of her tongue."
~Applause,Applause

"Some of the songs were very funny, some were dramatic and striking, some were emotionally affecting, and some were bravura pieces.
Hughes was consistent, though: wonderful."
~Roy Sander, Back Stage

"Award-winning soprano Annie Hughes offers vocal trills and thrills in her new show, "In My Life"...madcap musical comedy.
She hits high E-asily"
~Wayman Wong, The Daily News

"A piece of special material that Hughes wrote with Wayne Abarvanel,"Monday in the Dark at the Audition from Hell"
[aka "Dear Mr. Sondheim"], was especially impressive in its execution since it is more difficult than the Sondheim tongue-twisters it parodies.
Hughes has a gift for comedy."
~David Hurst, Showbusiness Online

"A talent that can only be described as terrific - Don't miss her."
~Drama-Logue
