" As the show begins
you get a hint of a beautiful soprano voice eminating from the Mother
Abbess played by Elisabeth Kisselstein. When she sings Climb Every Mountain
at the end of
the first act, her voice soars to a crescendo that sends chills through
your bones." The Sound of Music,

Saggau, The River Weekly

"The nuns
have wonderful
voices, particularly Elisabeth Kisselstein, who plays Mother Abbess.
Her operatic version of Climb
Every
Mountain, later in the show is
stunning." The Sound of Music, Broadway
Palm. Francesca Donlan, The
News-Press
"Making her first appearance in
New Hope
is Elisabeth Kisselstein, who plays the Mother Abbess. A veteran of
both musical theater and opera, she has a fully trained soprano range
and makes Climb Ev'ry
Mountain
sound easy."

"Lisa Kisselstein was
outstanding as Marian Paroo... She did an excellent job of portraying
Marian's simultaneous distrust of and attraction to Hill. Ms.
Kisselstein probably will be most remembered, however, for her
beautiful singing voice, showcased in such songs as Goodnight My
Someone, My
White Knight,
and Till There Was You."
