"Yes, the Vosk talent is transparent, and ardor for the actress is in order. But it
is easier to love someone when you feel love from them, and love rolls off of Jessica
Vosk like the four thousand layers of material flowing from her ball gown last night.
Jessica leads, at all times, with love, and it shows.”
-Broadway World
"The... rich mezzo of this rock goddess of the stage, Jessica Vosk, launched the programme,
and the series, with a confident flourish...this Jewish-Polish singing actress is
the epitome of what American musical theatre is all about."
- BritishTheatre.com
"Her powerhouse and pristine vocals aside, the true achievement here is Vosk’s ability
to switch musical genres effortlessly, engaging each song with a new vocal attack
that is completely truthful to its musical style."
-Playbill
“Jessica Vosk, as the ghost of Lazar Wolf’s first wife, Fruma-Sarah, is a knockout,
making a magnificent entrance...”

Utah Valley University acknowledges that we gather on land sacred to all Indigenous people who came before us in this vast crossroads region. The University is committed to working in partnership—as enacted through education and community activities—with Utah’s Native Nations comprising: the San Juan Southern Paiute, Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah, Uintah & Ouray Reservation of the Northern Ute, Skull Valley Goshute, Confederated Tribes of the Goshute Reservation, Northwestern Band of Shoshone Nation, Hopi Tribe, Navajo Nation, Ute Mountain Ute-White Mesa Community, and urban Indian communities. We recognize these Native Nations and their continued connections with traditional homelands, mountains, rivers, and lakes as well as their sovereign relationships with state and federal governments. We honor their collective memory and continued physical and spiritual presence. We revere their resilience and example in preserving their connections to the Creator and to all their relations, now and in the future.
With this statement comes responsibility and accountability. We resolve to follow
up with actionable items to make the School of the Arts at UVU and The Noorda Center
for the Performing Arts an inclusive, equitable, and just space for all. There is
much work to be done, and we are committed to putting these words into practice.
