“Not that there's a notably heroic quality to Laura Giannarelli's production [of Widowers House] at the intimate Undercroft Theatre. It's simply well balanced, with each actor colorfully putting forth self-interests and contradictions….It's a swell night of Shaw.” —The Washington Post |

for Washington Stage Guild's "I love Giannarelli as a young girl, when she babbles hysterically at her beau because he’s ruined her first kiss for her forever by kissing her as Miss Choti always kisses her “inside eye, outside eye” and she is sure he’s learned that kind of kissing from that same Miss Choti." |

production of " ...Yet the actors make Hudes's poetry their own, especially
Giannarelli, who lends the play a palpable earthiness." "Actress Laura Giannarelli, who embodies the earth
mother in the character of Ginny, gives a memorable, warm-hearted portrayal
that conveys the warmth of a nurses healing touch...Her behavior
implies that through communion and sharing, silent suffering can be
brought to the surface and life goes on." |
|
for Washington Stage Guild's Strange Bedfellows "...Laura Giannarelli playing a gloriously imposing firebrand named Mrs. Banger..." "Two one act plays are connected by a performed reading of excerpts from the writings of and about Shaw by none other than Laura Giannarelli." "The cast gives the work a vigorous staging, with Lescault’s brisk and officious general and Giannarelli’s bellicose female fighter providing the most fun." |

"Laura Giannarelli and Lynn Steinmetz, embodying those patently stuffy dowager types of the late Victorian age, deliver Wilde's epigrams with verve..." |

for Studio Theatre's " As dad and mom, Paul L. Nolan and Laura Giannarelli bring a brutal, cutting honesty to a sterile partnership." Peter Marks, The Washington Post "The grownups, mother Laura Giannarelli and father Paul L. Nolan, are exceptionally strong even though neither has a puppet-self which would amplify their traits." |
|
for Washington Stage Guild's "...Lynn Steinmetz and Laura Giannarelli double with stalwart capability as mothers and reviewers..." Washington Post "...Giannarelli, with her clear, rich voice and stately presence, is also a standout as the pious, excitable Mrs. Knox." BroadwayWorld.com "...Giannarelli's marvelous representation of social superiority..." |

for Washington Stage Guild's "...the gathering of the soon-to-be Humble-Pyes offers a series of sight gags that the actors pull off beautifully...the horrified reaction of Mercy (Laura Giannarelli), a family friend, when she realizes that the small decorative pot left on the table wasn't filled with seasoning..."

for Wayside Theatre's "After coming down with...pneumonia, [the actor] was replaced by actress Laura Giannarelli in the central role of Madame Arcati, the spirit medium who begins the otherworldly chaos around which the play revolves...Giannarelli offers a full-voiced, big-gestured Madame Arcati, a character it would be easy to overplay. Its entertaining to watch her bound and skip across the stage in childish delight when she learns that her incantations actually brought a spirit from beyond." The Winchester Star

for Washington Stage Guild's "Laura Giannarelli makes "Dame Dextra Rightside" a Margaret Thatcher without having to change a word of the original 1933 script..." Potomac Stages |
|
for Washington Stage Guild's "Laura Giannarelli's last-act appearance as Agatha, Charles's blowhard sister and abbess of the competing monastery, is a refreshing...distraction just when things start getting a little too slapsticky." Washington Post "...Laura Giannarelli makes a fabulous entrance as the Abbess...and the energy level, the volume and the humor all step up one notch." Potomac Stages "Laura Giannarelli adds some late energy to the show with her Agatha, Abbess of Bernay...she comes on strong and never lets up...'" Curtain Up |

|
for Washington Stage Guild's "...Giannarelli is an actress of natural intelligence and an underplayed kind of sexiness, who communicates complex emotions with the simplest gestures. In larger venues these two fine character actors often are employed in supporting parts. Here, happily, they own the stage, and for 75 minutes our complete attention as well." |
