 In a review of her 2002 Radio City Music Hall concert , Stephen Holden of The New York Times described Peters as " the peaches @-@ and @-@ cream embodiment of an ageless storybook princess ... inside a giant soap bubble floating toward heaven . A belief in the power of the dreams behind Rodgers and Hammerstein 's songs , if not in their reality , was possible . " Peters made her solo concert debut at Lincoln Center in New York City in 2006 . Holden , reviewing this concert , noted , " Even while swiveling across the stage of Avery Fisher Hall like a voluptuous Botticelli Venus in Bob Mackie spangles ... she radiated a preternatural innocence .... For the eternal child in all of us , she evokes a surrogate childhood playmate " . Peters was the headliner at the 2009 Adelaide Cabaret Festival in Adelaide , Australia . The Sunday Mail wrote that Peters showed " the verve , vigour and voice of someone half her age . "
