GREASE AT MARRIOTT THEATRE
“The final major highlight here, Michelle Lauto‘s performance as Pink Lady Marty. Not only is her “Freddy My Love” both powerful and flirtatious, but Lauto’s overall performance makes patrons want to focus on her in group scenes just to see how Marty is taking it all in. She simply gets better in every show she’s cast.”

“As Betty, Michelle Lauto brings lovely vocals and depth to an underwritten role”

OKLAHOMA! AT THE MARRIOTT THEATRE
“The best comedy of the night comes from Michelle Lauto, now a red-headed Ado Annie, and her partner in crime, Will Parker, most charmingly played by Aaron Umsted. I’ve long thought Lauto to be a Broadway-quality performer who just needs the right chance, and her sophisticated vocal treatment of Ado Annie’s comic songs make that only more clear. It’s funny and it’s dignified. No mean feat.”
-CHRIS JONES, the chicago tribune
HAIR AT MERCURY THEATER
“The terrific Michelle Lauto, who plays Sheila and really finds her way to the moral center of Didier's production, thumps her chest in "Easy to be Hard" and really sells the emotional intensity, and sociopolitical imperative, of that song.”

SPAMILTON: AN AMERICAN PARODY AT THE ROYAL GEORGE THEATER
‘Michelle Lauto is sensational as the Schuyler women, and in brief riffs as Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Gloria Estefan, all trying to finesse a recording with Miranda. Lauto should be fielding offers from near and far very soon.”
-heddy weiss, the chicago sun times
“ the ebullient Michelle Lauto, whose dynamic performance, as pretty much all the women of "Hamilton," should be a big break for her.”
