PENNY 4 EYES
"The highlight here is Broadway vet Lucia Giannetta, who plays a captivating, self-involved mother and is the only cast member who can pull off rock ’n’ roll vocals."
- Village Voice
"At least two performances impress: Giannetta wows with a Gibraltar-size rock voice which in cadence and forcefulness nearly transcends the over-amplified pop glop surrounding it."
- Talkin' Broadway
"Lucia Giannetta, playing Penny’s abusive and neglectful mother, has a powerhouse voice, part gospel, part '80s rock star screamer, that blows the roof off the place."

SODOM
“Some obvious talent is misspent on this misconceived effort. ... the 14-member company, under Ben Rimalower's direction, includes several agreeable musical-theatre voices, among them Lucia Giannetta, Galit Sperling, and Justin Schultz as various Sodomites. Accompanied by music director Marcus Baker's electronic keyboard, they plunge courageously into Adam David Cohen's overly complex score, which verges on sounding atonal.
