What People Are Saying
A Dash Of Rosemary appears at first to be small and unassuming, but it has the heart of a big winner. This gem of a show takes you on a touching, sentimental journey of the legendary singer's life while offering up one hit song after the other. If it weren't for the lump in my throat, I would have sung along during the show's finale. That is no easy task to accomplish, but producer/creator Douglas Kampsen succeeds in serving up all the right ingredients.

More than any other musical since Ain’t Misbehavin, A Dash of Rosemary! gets under the skin of its inspiration, Rosemary Clooney’s remarkable life and the music she made popular. This show is the pleasure of reading a juicy autobiography while experiencing some of the greatest songs of the greatest era in American songwriting.
- Robert Cacioppo, Producing Artistic Director, Florida Repertory Theatre
I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed A Dash of Rosemary! I was reminded of some things that I had forgotten about her life, and the songs were obviously wonderful. The whole show was very sweet and I'm sure my grandma would have really enjoyed it. So thank you for a great night.
- Dustin Ferrer - Granddaughter of Rosemary Clooney
The show was great. As I went out singing songs to myself, songs that I had not heard for some time, I realized that I had a new, very rich feeling about Rosemary as a person.

Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much my husband and I enjoyed the Rosemary Clooney Tribute show this weekend. I think all the young kids in the audience couldn't understand why we were crying! She is so missed and for a few short hours, it was like she was still with us...

When the actor talked about how Rosemary had sung that song about mourning America after 9/11, I got choked up and teary-eyed. I was fighting back tears. Thanks goodness the show was upbeat.

All of you are truly fabulous. What an exciting, vibrant, humorous, yet intense musical, so full of energy. Rosemary's life story is truly amazing and a great inspiration. We felt as though we were living her life with her. What a fantastic woman and survivor she must have been. We will appreciate her music and life with much more meaning now. A Truly Phenomenal Musical Production!
