She has been universally praised for her interpretations of Berlin cabaret songs

Known world-wide for her prodigious gifts as an actress, singer, dancer and unique recording artist; Ute Lemper has a chameleon-like presence which has entranced audiences with her stage performances (including Broadway and Londons' West End) as well as on the screen and in the concert hall for more than a decade.

She has been universally praised for her interpretations of Berlin cabaret songs, the works of Kurt Weill and French chanson.... (She is) sultry, sexy, haughty, innocent, comedic, introspective, seductive and perceptive....Ute Lemper's magnetic stage presence and powerful sexual allure had critics feverish... and audiences queued around the block.

Ute Lemper herself is a phenomenon. She is worldwide recognized as the real Cabaret Diva who differentiates and distinguishes herself from other Divas and torch singers by her highly refined style, class, intellect, renaissance and world culture background, plus theatrical stardom which is based upon a mysteriously and enigmatically “Femina Persona” which for generations was the exclusive monopoly of the one and only Marlene Dietrich her compatriot.
