reviewed for Emilie: La Marquise du Châtelet Defends Her Life Tonight
“ Michelle handles its signs with finesse and credibility. Belief that she’s patrician and serious about the character’s intellectual investment is immediate.”
- Alix Cohen, Women Around Town
“Michelle…shifts flawlessly from vocalizing her thoughts and feelings, interacting with the other characters, engaging the audience with direct eye contact and direct-address comments, explaining the equations and theories, and debating them with Voltaire.” - Deb Miller, DC Theater Arts
“It’s a demanding performance that she makes seem effortless with her total command of the expository material and the emotions Emilie experiences and expresses.” - Deb Miller, DC Theater Arts
“A bravura turn by Amy Michelle” - Job Sobel, Blog Critics
“Amy Michelle could hold her own against anyone and Nigel Gore came off as a petulant child sometimes which could be quite endearing thanks to Emilie’s attitude.” - Eva Heinemann, Hi! Drama
