| Press Quotes and Reviews |
For The Riders:
"Bennett and Rogers fill most of the short piece with confessions and
anecdotes so sincere and unaffected, one is quickly caught up in the
actresses' utter ingenuousness."
- Robert Simonson, TimeOut New York, 8/24/2000
"The Riders is one of the pleasantest surprises of this year's FringeNYC.
... Rogers and Bennett - petite, smart and articulate - are about as far
removed from the biker chick stereotypes as it's possible to be... Mostly
they recreate for us the sheer joy and exhilaration that they feel when
they hit the open rode on their bikes."
- Martin Denton, nytheatre.com, 8/24/2000
For Imminent, Indeed
"The physical work onstage is also an example of great collaboration
between director and ensemble.... Noteworthy, as well, are Heather
Rogers and Catherine Wronowski as the comic [Snitch and Snatch] as
they bleat around the stage one part dumb pair of sidekicks, one part
mischevious (and hilarious) troublemakers." [full review]
- Ross Peabody, nytheatre.com, 8/16/2006
For Babylon Babylon
Martin Denton said "Their commitment and concentration as an
ensemble are commendable" and then went on to single out some
actors for "particularly memorable contributions" including ME!

For Piecework
"If the factory workers in [Robyn Burland's] play are not real people, by
the time their stories are told you feel as if they could have been."
- Neil Genzlinger, New York Times, 11/30/04,
review titled "Only the Fire Was Real, but the Cast Is Credible"
For The Heist Project:
Ahn Behrans called the scene I wrote a "standout" in the Waterfront
Journal, 11/10/05 and said the play featured "top notch performances".
Martin Denton, in nytheatre.com, 11/11/2005 called the scene I
performed in "one of [his] favorite sequences". He also wrote "The Heist
Project is breathtakingly ambitious and splendidly inventive. All of the
artists involved - the visual artists...; the writers; the filmmakers - are to
be commended for engaging our imagination and intellect with such
acuity."
For the Tempest:
"Rogers not only shows great acting but brings with her strong musical
talent as well. Her beautiful singing voice and flute-playing were very
impressive."
- Jodi Scarpella, NYIT's The Campus Slate, 3/13/2000
