"California Suite"

"Anna Dresdon is perfect as Academy Award nominee Diana Nichols, obsessed with her appearance and wanting desperately to be a winner. Her barbs are cutting, but the exposition of love at the end is both tender and painfully moving. This is quality entertainment."

"Underneath the tragi-comedy are very human people. The polished acting of Anna Dresdon as the actress who failed to get her Oscar gives a superlative interpretation infusing bitter humor with deep understanding."

"The finest scene in the play, a backstage conversation between Dame Edith and Marilyn Monroe, gains immeasurably from the superior impersonation of the late actress by Anna Dresdon."

"Anna Dresdon gives us a neat fat-cat Gabor look and offers up a razor-sharp portrait of Petra's shallow companion."

"Anna Dresdon was superb. Her performance was alive and captivating...she was wise, witty, profound and very funny. Especially enjoyable was her deft Noel Coward touch."

"The dramatic presentation by Anna Dresdon was overwhelmingly powerful. As a performer and a writer, she is unique."

"The strongest performance of the evening was Anna Dresdon's journey into Paganism. With wit and much good humor, this gal zips from wacky New Age cult experiences to conventional religions and finally to more somber vignettes about loss and beloved companions...fast paced and most successful."
