| Von Essen is marvelous in the role. It's a juicy character and Von Essen is an electric presence, and he gets to sing some of the show's most famous songs ("Wilkommen," "Money" and "If You Could See Her") ~by Bev Sykes for davisenterprise.com |
| Willkomen! Bienvenue! Welcome!" announces the emcee as he is lowered on a swing opening the cabaret at the Kit Kat Club. Max Von Essen is a definite treat as the animated Emcee whose singing rolled smoothly with a strong and consistent performance through the show. Energy filled the air as the emcee sings invitingly of "leaving your troubles outside because in here, life is beautiful " ~ by May Morishima for The Sacramento Stage & Theatre |
| Von Essen is direct and engaging as the inscrutable, androgynous Emcee.
