REVIEWS
|
"[Whittaker] turns in a charming central performance as Sarah...she makes it feel as if going along with Sarah’s ridiculous, misguided scheme is the most natural thing in the world. Her enthusiasm is so endearing that one cannot blame Bob for letting himself get carried away."
- Utah Theatre Bloggers review of Beau Jest |
"Notably, Liz [Whittaker] performed well in two unpleasant roles — the mean Miss Scatcherd of Lowood School, and the disturbing and disturbed Bertha Mason; her chilling turn in the latter part may be reason enough to leave the younger kids at home."
- Deseret News review of Jane Eyre |
"Ensemble member Liz Whittaker deserves special props for her versatility and sparkle as she bounced between diverse roles, like buttoned up town council member and rough-and-tumble burger joint owner. Her dance solo during a scene change earned the obvious delight of the audience."
- Utah Theatre Bloggers review of Footloose |
