What the Critics are Saying About Daebreon:
“WOW! …Musical Theatre West’s staging of Into The Woods…a big-stage, big-talent triumph…Daebreon Poiema makes for the most spectacular of Witches, wildly hilarious pre-transformation, Beyonce-level glamorous in Act Two, and there’s probably no one in L.A. musical theater with pop diva pipes as magnificent as hers.”
– Steven Stanley, StageSceneLA
“Daebreon has a vocal quality that makes you sit up and take notice!”
– George Morris, THE ADVOCATE
“…completely convincing as the strong and confident, enslaved Princess Aida, [Daebreon] brought the house to its feet with

The Gods Love Nubia. So commanding is her presence, that she can perform an entire song with very little movement on stage and be devoured by the audience’s attention.”
“Daebreon Poiema shines in “The Bodyguard”… Whitney was in the house. No doubt about it on opening night of Theatre at the Welk’s production… a dynamic performance by Daebreon Poiema, does Whitney proud without at all trying to imitate her.
– David L. Coddon, San Diego Union Tribune
As she demonstrated in starring roles at Moonlight Amphitheatre’s “Sister Act” in 2016 and “Aida” a year later, Poiema can sing with either full power or a silken touch as required.

““The Bodyguard”, now a musical for the stage, is filled with the same

wonderful songs from the movie. And the lady who sings them is Daebreon Poiema. She attacks every song with boundless courage. When she sings, one conjures ‘the great white way’…we are all glad she is here because this woman can sing Whitney.
And, quite honestly, that is her gift.”
“WOW! Daebreon Poiema is spectacular as pop diva Rachel Marron in “The Bodyguard”, which delivers the entertainment goods and proof that not only can she sing like a pop superstar, but she’s got the moves and glamour to match.”
