Acceptance Speech.
Presented at Fringe Report Awards ceremony 2008, The Arts Theatre, London on Monday 25 February 08 by Emma Taylor & John Park
Citation: 'The award celebrates Holly Penfield and the reckless delight she brings to international cabaret as bill-topping singer, and being Holly Penfield. Her gorgeous voice releases the joyfulness of I've Got A Lot of Living To Do, and makes I Want To Be Evil very dirty indeed. She is able to find the emotional and intellectual centre of pretty much any song and give it a fabulous outing, in perfect time and note, placing it gracefully into the hearts of her audience. And if a song has sex, she'll find it. Holly Penfield's All That Jazz is the definitive version'
Well deserved and LONG overdue! Go Girl!
