Press & Reviews
“Sarah Caraher stars in the role of the Little Prince and from her first forceful notes of “DRAW ME A SHEEP!” to her quiet, wistful, lilting of “Because It Is She” she had me. What a gorgeous voice that woman has and it moved me so much that I demanded a soundtrack be recorded so I could listen to her heavenly voice over and over again.” - Crackmacs Theatre Review of The Little Prince
“A gifted actor with a sweet and expressive sound as a singer, [Sarah] possesses one of the best work ethics I have ever witnessed[…]Her diligence, tenacity, and self-discipline, in combination with her talent, has allowed her to excel.” - Katherine Kaszas, Director of St. Clair College Musical Theatre Program
“We needed a really strong soprano to sing the prince but the artist also had to be mature and, most important of all, she had to be a little button of a thing which we found in Sarah Caraher.” - Nicholas Lloyd Webber, composer of The Little Prince
“Caraher has a delightfully crystal clear voice.” - Review of A Mighty Fortress is Our Basement
On a personal note...
I am a huge bookworm, a Type-A organizer, and I'm constantly cracking Dad jokes and bad puns. I pride myself on my exceptional work ethic, my excellent communication skills, and my passion for the arts and the non-profit sector.
“An exemplary student and an exceptional performer, it has been a privilege to watch this emerging young talent.” - Katherine Kaszas, Director of St. Clair College Musical Theatre Program
