Sister
Cities, by Colette Freedman
"Wise,
warm, and full of heart and humor, Sister Cities by Colette Freedman
is one of the best new plays of the season. The New York premiere at
T. Schreiber Studio is splendid, featuring expert, detailed direction
by Cat Parker…"

Picasso
at the Lapin Agile, by Steve Martin
"…I
was in especial appreciation of Cat Parker's brilliant direction:
she punctuated every pun and superbly set up every joke."

Patrick Lee, Just
Shows To Go You (See full
review.)
"Cat
Parker's production of Picasso at the Lapin Agile for T. Schreiber
Studio is superb, nicely balancing the antic comedy with the script's
authentic seriousness of purpose to produce an evening that's enormously
entertaining and full of wonder.

"Cat
Parker's direction is excellent, with clever blocking that makes the
punctilious puns of this play seem more natural…"

"Director
Cat Parker proves adept both at the over-the-top humor and the moments
of quiet wonder that Martin has created in his play."

Laughter
on the 23rd Floor, Neil Simon, Oklahoma City Rep, Spring 2004
"This
City Rep production of Laughter on the 23rd Floor is absolutely
first rate. You're not likely to find a better-delivered Simon performance
anywhere in the country. Cat Parker directed the show with not only
a fine sense of how to pace the comic repartee for best results but
also with a true feeling for the serious issues underlying the comedy.
In the confined area of the small theater she manages to use the spare
set and simple costuming to suggest far more than what appears before
the audience, the mark of how a superb director works creatively within
confines."
-
Clif Warren
"And
Simon's balancing act, just enough pathos to remind you why these
people love what they do, is difficult to describe, let alone express,
but director Catrin Parker pulls it off deftly."

Appointment
with Death, by Agatha Christie
"Under
the astute direction of Catrin Parker, Agatha Christie's Appointment
with Death scores at the Dorset Theatre Festival. It's one of her
best plays, engrossing and amusing through the last surprising moments."
-
Bob Rose, The Post Star
"Catrin
Parker's direction (of Appointment with Death) is right on target…"
