I was especially impressed with Ms. O'Connor, who is as tart as a lemon dipped in vinegar - Terry Teachout, Wall Street Journal.
The sensational Caroline O'Connor, whose slew of Broadway and European credits hardly prepare you for her breathtaking, impossibly sexy dancing and singing... - Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times.
Real regret earns standing ovations in Gary Griffin's Chicago-style Follies. Four stars - Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune.
Caroline O'Connor delivers a couple of showstoppers as Phyllis - Kris Vire, Time Out Chicago.
Caroline O'Connor, who is delicious throughout as the acid-tongued Phyllis, stopped the show as she strutted her leggy stuff in The Story of Lucy and Jessie - Nancy Malitz, Chicago On The Aisle.
O'Connor is stunning. This Follies is unmissable - From The Ledge.
Caroline O'Connor continually zings with dry wit and perfect pipes - Katy Walsh, Chicago Now.
Here's to the the ladies upstairs! Follies is first rate at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre - Misha Davenport, Broadway World.
Caroline O'Connor tantalises - Scotty Zacher, Chicago Theater Beat.
Only one show on your list? Make it this one - Chicago Critic.
Highly recommended - Around The Town Chicago.
