“Lighting up the stage was the extremely likable and very talented Abby Anderson as Shelby. In her Forestburgh debut, Anderson created a three-dimensional character who credibly demonstrated courage, love, and strength.”

“A true highlight of the show is when Emily Gibbs (Anderson) comes to the reality of her death. Anderson’s passion and emotional connection with Emily was clear during the famous ‘Goodbye, Grover’s Corners’ monologue.”

“Local talent perfectly cast. Abby Anderson as beautiful, naive Wendla [has a] pristine singing voice.”

“Abby Anderson [gives an] exceptional performance as the innocent and tragically naive Wendla.”
