Gwen Orel - Backstage "The entire cast is solid, with standout performances by Mark Armstrong as Bo and Kristen Vaughan as his alcoholic, long suffering wife Sunny." Peter Schuyler - nytheatre.com High praises to Kristen Vaughan, who handled Sunny�s alcoholism with compassion, and showed us the many layers of loneliness while alongside others. Antonio Minino - The Fab Marquee Emily Mann's STILL LIFE with Retro Productions "...sharply rendered...an emotional strip-tease ...Cunningham and Vaughan are marvels..." Marc Miller - Backstage Doris Baizley's MRS. CALIFORNIA with Retro Productions "...PERFECTLY PLAYED by Kristen Vaughan..." Neil Genzingler - New York Times "...Kristen Vaughan is funny and positively magnetic as Mrs. San Francisco." Michael Lazan - Backstage Adam Bock's FIVE FLIGHTS with Pisces Moon Productions "...special mention should go to Kristen Vaughan who plays Olivia. As the messianic figure of a new religion, Olivia has to carry the charisma of the true believer and Vaughan, mustering a whirlwind of spiritual energy, comes across believably as a zealous woman who thinks she�s finally found the answer to a riddle she�s been grappling with her entire life." Wallace Baine - Santa Cruz Sentinel Tectonic Theater's THE LARAMIE PROJECT with Pisces Moon Productions As always, Vaughan brings incredible vitality to the parts she plays. Two of her key roles are Catherine Connolly, an openly gay professor at the University of Wyoming, and Steven Mead Johnson, a Unitarian minister. As Connolly, she describes chillingly how she watched a truck drive past her in the street in Laramie, do a U-turn and come back towards her. Could it be coming for her? Joyce D. Mann - Register Pajaronian Nicky Silver's THE ALTRUISTS with Pisces Moon Productions "Kristen Vaughan is splendid as Sydney, a two-bit actress who "plays" her own life with melodramatic enthusiasm. Every scene is a performance, over-acted and over-emoted, as Vaughan's Sydney balances reality against drama - and drama always wins out in the end. Vaughan's stage presence is hypnotic, and her approach to comedy is wildly successful." Ann Bennett - Register Pajaronian Nicky Silver's THE FOOD CHAIN with Pisces Moon Productions "Vaughan's performance is awe-inspiring; she offers us every nuance of this complex and sometimes loopy character, manages to reveal even the most subtle of the author's gags, and has the audience spellbound every moment." Elaine McCarthy - Santa Cruz Sentinel John Millington Synge's PLAYBOY OF THE WESTERN WORLD with Cabrillo College "Kristen Vaughan, playing the Widow Quin, gives an outstanding performance..." Elaine McCarthy - Santa Cruz Sentinel "Kristen Vaughan does a grand job ... Her bravado is deliciously self-serving and her personality is wonderfully Irish." Ann Bennett - Register Pajaronian Ken Ludwig's LEND ME A TENOR with MCT "Kristen Vaughan is a raucous delight as the overbearing wife, screeching like an Italian fishwife in a melodrama." Ann Bennett - Register Pajaronian Nicky Silver's RAISED IN CAPTIVITY with Mercury Players "Vaughan is sensational in her role as this disturbed, confused, hilariously funny character." Nadine Goff - Wisconsin State Journal Neil Simon's RUMORS "Kristen Vaughan is delightfully hysterical as the frantic Chris." Ann Bennett - Register Pajaronian John Patrick Shanley's ITALIAN AMERICAN RECONCILIATION "Vaughan turned in a stunning, memorable performance on opening night." Nadine Goff - Wisconsin State Journal "The second act is lit up like a red hot coal by Kristen Vaughan's wonderfully funny and convincing performance as Janice." Richard Farr - Madison Isthmus \ |
