    “A beloved, latter-day vaudevillian…an engagingly mischievous dispenser of musical repartee”
    Stephen Holden, The New York Times

    “What’s so special about Sidney? He’s a cross between Noel Coward and Fannie Brice with a blend of sophistication and style, sentiment and kitsch which have you roaring with laughter one moment and wiping away tears a few seconds later. There ain’t nobody else quite like him. He’s really one of a kind!”
    Myra Chanin, The Huffington Post

    “There’s nothing provisional about a Sidney Myer performance. He’s disarming, funny, preposterous, touching and utterly unique. Those of you lucky enough to have seen this show will undoubtedly never forget it.”
    Alix Cohen, Broadway World
