reviews
“Claire Clairmont, is played by Cruz Gonzalez-Cadel. This, too, is a fascinating piece of acting, the kind that makes you want more.”
Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
“The second act revolves around Gabriela, giving the actor who portrays her, Cruz Gonzalez-Cadel, a chance to shine, and she takes it. She brings such compassion and warmth to the role.”
– Daniel Mendoza, Gozamos
“Gonzalez-Cadel is just wonderful as Elena, her performance a carefully drawn treatise on the thin line between resilience and resignation”
– Alex Huntsberger, The Chicago Sun-Times
“A flawless piece of work…The storyteller is played by Cruz Gonzalez-Cadel, a young Chicago actress with roots in Argentina and whose work here is so extraordinarily empathetic it's hard to do it justice in a review."
– Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
“Gonzalez-Cadel brings such a grounded performance and displays a strong shift of a jubilant emotion in a scary situation."
– Jonald Jude Reyes, PerformInk
