"I was able to see [Marquia Banks] performance last night and was very impressed with her abilities. Within a few moments of [Wait Until Dark's] beginning, I was pulled into the story by the two cons, both of which played a fantastic role. Ms. Banks delivered her lines so well that I actually didn't want intermission to begin. Please pass my "performance very well done" onto her. I hope to see her in larger roles in the future."
