During her career, Debby has toured and opened for rock superstars including Joe Walsh, Rod Stewart and Kiss.

"The peak for many of us came when she did her fathers song, "Put a Little Love in your Life." The crowd was totally into it and it garnered a standing ovation. In fact, every number received very sustained applause. As I said after hearing her on Thursday, the girl can SING! Closing March 4th at 7:30 in the Red Room. Please get out to see this so that we can hopefully get her back next season." - Jim Davis

Come Together is a history of The Beatles that features three important periods of the Fab Four's evolution: "Beatlemania," Drugs and Krishna Consciousness.

"Imagine all of your most talented, slightly crazy friends getting together in the community hall to celebrate the music and life of the Beatles. That gives you an idea of the exuberance and joy that Rhonda Padmos and Don Pope bring to their new musical creation... The quiz show is priceless. Combined with obscure facts about The Beatles, the four nutty contestants and the charming quiz master had the audience in stitches. Elviz, your Mariachi character had me in stitches. The prize is quite delicious! ...Kudos to all for pulling it off on a fabulous opening night." 5 of 5 stars - TripAdvisor user Honey_Crawford.
