Smart Blonde

Bianchi's Ruth Gordon is worth the price of admission. It provides a witty comic highpoint of the evening.

WMNR

Loot

Andrea Bianchi is thoroughly attractive in this role of both sex object and predator.

Princeton Packet

Crooners

The role (of Sophie) is beautifully played by Andrea Bianchi and, interestingly, she steals the entire show without singing a note.

Theatremania

Where the Sun Never Sets

Andrea Bianchi's Annie hilariously morphs from liberal lawyer to a conservative spewing hatred.

Curtain Call

Loot

Andrea Bianchi will have you holding your sides from laughter.

The Catskill Chronicle

Shout, the Mod Musical

Gwendolyn's voiceover is done (hysterically) by Andrea Bianchi. Standout songs include Andrea Bianchi's rendition of the searing "I Couldn't Live Without Your Love"

The Star Ledger

Humbug

Returning from last year -- but somehow even better this time around -- is Andrea Bianchi as The Ghost of Christmas Present. Bianchi is a corker of a Cockney. Looking somewhat like a pre-"Rain in Spain" Eliza Doolittle with a touch of Lucy Ricardo thrown in, Bianchi dispenses her justice with comic abandon. Her little victory dance is worthy of Rumplestiltskin.

Madison

As the actress, Madame De Touraine, ANDREA BIANCHI is a comic delight, both physically and in the delivery of her lines

Peter Felicia of The Star Ledger

Off the Hook

Best of all is Andrea Bianchi as the ambassador's wife. She's got a perfect Julie Andrews British accent and snobby demeanor. How Bianchi tries to stay awake after she's accidentally taken that sleeping potion is one of the funniest moments of the season.

Light and Sound America

Smart Blonde

Andrea Bianchi juggles various Great Women of Show Business, including Comden, Marilyn Monroe (who shows up to compare dumb-blonde poses with Holliday), and -- in a wicked, sketch-comedy turn -- a pushy, gesticulating Ruth Gordon.

Florida Today

Don’t Dress for Dinner

Andrea Bianchi as the mistress embellishes her role with fun and stage business. Her strong stage presence enables her to take an otherwise smallish role and bring it to the boil.

Talkin' Broadway

Smart Blonde

For her part, Ms. Bianchi does show some real comic chops and mimicry skills, and her few moments as Ruth Gordon are quite funny.

Florida Today

Lend Me a Tenor

Bianchi is particularly funny as Maria, ranting and raving with Italian abandon. Bianchi's movement shows a touch of Martha Raye and is like none other you've seen on stage before.

The Star Ledger

Off the Hook

The Star Ledger

Madison

Andrea Bianchi almost steals the show as the French actress who's been told she's a star and assumes that must mean the sun.

New York Times

A Chorus Line

History aside, no one performer has put an intimidating imprint for all time on any of these roles. Here, Andrea Bianchi is a splendidly dear Diana Morales ("I felt nothing"); look no farther.

But the one singular sensation is Andrea Bianchi.

Peter Felicia of The Star Ledger

Crooners

Andrea Bianchi gives Sophie the imperious veneer of a pro determined to make her mark on the world, but has the soft underbelly of a teacher who genuinely loves and cares about her students. She's said to have been a popular band singer, and Bianchi has such style even in the way that she sits that you believe it.

New York Times

Smart Blonde

Yetta Cohn is portrayed with benevolent toughness by Andrea Bianchi, who is also highly amusing as the writer and actress Ruth Gordon.

New York Stage Review

Smart Blonde

Andrea Bianchi demonstrates strong comedic talent as she moves from Betty Comden to Ruth Gordon to Holliday's communist -lesbian lover, Yetta Cohn; and finally and unexpectedly, Marilyn Monroe. As someone who spent time around Betty and Adolph and Ruthie, let me add that these impersonations were most cleverly accomplished.

Times Square Chronicles
