"Keith Ramsay is engrossing" ... 
"Ramsay's breathtaking Stormy Weather is worth the price of the ticket to Edinburgh alone"... 
"This is total theatre, cabaret-style and Ramsay seems to drain every ounce of electricity from the spotlight."  * * * * * -  
Paul Vale, The Stage 

 

"quite extraordinary"

"He has a rich and versatile voice and a wonderfully expressive face, with something of the silent film star about him."

"He’s a force on stage. It feels like you’re watching an act of possession."
