"Liz Donathan playing Gildernstern and suddenly in the second half singing a song so touchingly - as a woman at last - that we are moved to tears..." [Michelle Phillips (cabaretsingers@egroups.com) August 26, 2001]
"... an amazingly talented and attractive cast that included some folks making their NYC debuts. Once again the cast was simply unbelievable. " [Stu Hamstra - Cabaret Hotline Online]
"It is the best revue I've seen this year! ...a wide range of extremely talented actors and singers, each having solo moments of glory and wonderful harmony.........to an equally delightful Liz Donathan's Guildenstern, who are used as a thread through out the show. But this was only one of many moments which left me breathless and allowed each very talented performer a chance to shine. A MUST SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!" [Michael Nelsen - MNnyc.com]

A former Chicago Actress/Singer, Liz Donathan (www.lizdonathan.com) did a fabulous job on INTO THE WOODS' "Last Midnight", a sadly neglected song. With her strong sense of acting and equally strong voice, she's a "must watch for"!!! [Michael Nelsen - MNnyc.com]

"Liz Donathan as sister, Meg's sister, is the 50's archetypal wisecracking sidekick. Everything about the show harks back to a more innocent time." [The Roanoke Times http://www.roanoke.com/freetime/stage/reviews/yankees.html]

"...As their bubbly, stage-struck lead singer, Liz Donathan combines a Betty Boop baby voice with an industrial-strength smile. With true show biz larceny, Donathan steals the show over and over." [Lawrence Bommer, Chicago Tribune, December 13, 1992]
"The riotously funny "Olympus on My Mind" is not playing at the Illinois Theatre Center, featuring the high-energy kitch of Liz Donathan... Liz Donathan, as the new Mrs. Sands, seizes every opportunity to realize this playwright's worst nightmare, with consummately bad tap-dancing, keenly inappropriate ad-libs, and awfully scary songs" (Note from Liz: I guess I did my job right...Delores is the supposed to be the embodiment of bad theatre.)... These three talents could carry the show..." [Bernard Rice, The Star, December 10, 1992]
"...And Liz Donathan's Delores steals the show right on cue." [Andrew Patner, Chicago Sun-Times, December 9, 1992]

"A few moments shine through the dreck, notably ... and "Imagine My Surprise," a sad and moving number sung with strength and passion by Liz Donathan. George Badeker and Donathan manage to strike a realistic note as next door neighbors who are thrilled by the prospect of a new romance, but terrified by the almost inevitable pain the relationship will cause." [Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times, April 19, 1989]
"Liz Donathan and Shelly Crosby score in a variety of funny skits with their good looks, good voices and comedic talents..." [Celianne Uhl, The Star, April 20, 1989]
