"Making her role debut as Donna Anna, Sophie Salvesani shines. She gives a believable portrayal of someone mourning her murdered father... Salvesani quickly proves she has the makings of a perfect Mozartean soprano..."

Opera Australia, GWB Entertainment and BB Group:

Theatre Haus

"In the leading role of Maria, Brisbane local Sophie Salvesani gave an outstanding vocal performance. Alongside the loveable Nigel Huckle as Tony, the pair created a believable and endearing chemistry, even in the short time span in which the events of the plot unfold."

Ipswich Musical Theatre Company:

Theatre People

"...delivered a nuanced, often hilarious, and deeply heartfelt performance. The heightened melodrama Toft and Salvesani gave to their rendition of A Heart Full of Love gave the number the nuance and lift it needed to deliver."
