Carla J. Hargrove, Trisha Jeffrey, and DeQuina Moore tear the roof off the
Virginia with their power lungs. These three gorgeous girls sing with sheer beauty and vocal force that was met with thunderous
applause each time they sang. This Motown Greek chorus of three also had hilarious comic scenes
that added another layer of perfection to their performances. They are the sound and the strength behind many of the songs,
and they are flawless! Examples of these include "Little Shop of Horrors," "Da-Doo," "Git It,"
"Suddenly Seymour," "The Meek Shall Inherit," and "Don’t Feed the Plants."

... DeQuina Moore, Trisha Jeffrey, and Carla J. Hargrove, as the street urchins who serve as a sort of dancing, doo-wop
Greek chorus, are sensational.
Flash Broadway Journal Encores: "Never Gonna Dance" Does, and How; Audrey II All Over Again
By Susan Yung, December 9, 2003
... [The dances Kathleen Marshall] choreographed, mainly for the fictional Ronnettes (the irrepressible DeQuina Moore,
Trisha Jeffrey, and Carla J. Hargrove) added an incisive spunkiness and verve to the proceedings. This Greek chorus
trio bopped, gestured, and mugged in their spiced up schoolgirl kilts while belting out the music.

... the black, streetsmart girl group of pop Greek chorus commentators that the script calls the urchins is ... foolproof
in the hands of DeQuina Moore, Trisha Jeffrey, and Carla J. Hargrove.

Snapping their fingers and swaying their hips to Kathleen Marshall's spare but on-the-mark choreography, Hargrove, Jeffrey,
and Moore sing and act their roles with jubilant malice.

Michael-Leon Wooley as the Voice of Audrey II, Carla J. Hargrove as Ronnette, Trisha Jeffrey as Crystal, and DeQuina
Moore as Chiffon round out the casting and fills the bottom out with their soulful harmonizing.

DeQuina Moore, Trisha Jeffrey, and Carla J. Hargrove are delicious as the perky girl-group and urchins that sing those
tight vocal arrangements...
