Man of La Mancha (Antonia)
Bristol Riverside Theatre


 "Standing out...are Christopher Marlowe Roche as a boisterously bothered Dr. Carrasco, and Lauren Cupples as Quixote’s innocent niece." -- Megan Diehl, DC Metro Theatre Arts

"Lauren Cupples is excellent as Don Quixote's niece Antonia." --Rebecca Rendell, Talkin' Broadway

"The trio — possessing some of the best voices in a vocally endowed cast — turn ["I'm Only Thinking Of Him"]  into a comic vignette that brings out its satire and makes it dramatically important to the overall story. The supporting cast made the music special, particularly Cupples,.." -- Neal Zoren, Princeton Info.com

   Les Miserables (Cosette) - The Media Theatre/dir. Jesse Cline

"Lauren Cupples' vocals simply soar as the beloved Cosette. Cupples and Monroe (Cosette and Marius) are so well matched vocally in their duet " A Heart Full of Love" that they leave your heart     
 with a "sigh of appreciation." " -- Pati Buehler, Broadway World
  
 Lauren Cupples uses her lovely, well-inflected soprano to give the grown Cosette a fullness the
character rarely achieves. Cupples endows Cosette with qualities that make us care more about her deep   love for Marius and wish for it to remain ardent and lasting." - Neal Zoren, Daily Times







The Addams Family (Wednesday) - The Media Theatre/dir. Dann Dunn

"Lauren Cupples portrays Wednesday Addams. Cupples is one of the strongest actors in this production, and her vocals, especially in “Pulled” are captivating. In “Pulled” this song highlights Cupples’s show-stopping voice as she capably displays her character’s angry glower even while she is singing about love." - Kelli Curtin, Theatre Sensations

"Lauren Cupplesentertains grandly with her big belt voice that expresses all Wednesday might otherwise hold inside...Cupples, as she does throughout the production, delivers the song with style and verve, her expressive full voice becoming thrilling in belt mode."  - Neal Zoren, Delaware Country Daily Times

"As their daughter, Wednesday, Lauren Cupples looks suitably like a sullen teenager, and sounds like a rising Broadway star." - David Fox, Philadelphia City Paper

"As daughter Wednesday, Lauren Cupples was what Tennessee Williams would call a "no-neck monster" (but in captivity). " -David Patrick Stearns, The Philadephia Inquirier

Joseph and the Amazing Techincolor Dreamcoat (Narrator) - The Media Theatre

"As the Narrator, Lauren Cupples is personable and wholesome, with a dollop of sweetness and a beautiful crystalline voice that gives wings to this show. " - Dante J.J. Bevilacqua, Montgomery News


"Lauren Cupples...brings you into the play and keeps you there...As she’s proven in several roles, Cupples has a versatile, dramatic voice, and she uses it to bring perspective to scenes." - Neal Zoren




"The show is wonderfully narrated by Lauren Cupples. Cupples, also, has a terrific voice. She commands the stage when telling the children about Joseph but blends nicely with the other characters when the story comes to life, explaining things without intruding on the main story. Cupples gracefully weaves in and out of the action." - Christina Perryman


PictureFlorence is "Goin' Out of Her Head."
Why Do Fools Fall in Love (Florence)- The Media Theatre


"Four exceptional singers and actresses...each actress does a wonderful job developing her character's personality. Cupples' Florence is the quiet, mouse-like glue that holds the friends together."  - Christina Perryman, Delaware County News Network

"...[Cupples'] medley in the second act is one of the strongest, most intense passages in the show..." -Neal Zoren

Pirates of Penzance - Bristol Riverside Theatre 



"As Mabel’s daffy sisters, Jessica Gruver, Sara Gafgen, Erika Strasburg, Samantha Kuhl, Lauren Cupples and Victoria Mayo are a synchronized sextet of priceless expressions and comic timing, along with harmonies so tight they sound marvelously angelic." - Dante Bevilacqua, Montgomery News.


Dr. Dolittle (Emma) - The Media Theatre

Picture




"Emma Fairfax, masterfully played by Lauren Cupples, is Doolittle’s love interest, who at first is a stranger and then a foe. Cupples has a beautiful voice and easily shifts her demeanor from feisty to sweet." - Delaware County Times (Click here for full review)

"Jesse Cline's direction...tender highlighting of the love triangle of Dolittle, the fiery Emma (Lauren Cupples), and Dolittle's assistant Matt (Sean Thompson). Thompson and Cupples' voices provide a superb blend - his honey-toned Broadway vocalizing and her equally lovely operatic approach. Both add needed charm, as do the adorable child actors." - The Philadephia Inquirer 




Sweeney Todd - City Theatre Company

Lauren as Johanna in Sweeney Todd
“Green Finch and Linnet Bird,” sung by Joanna (Lauren Cupples) is one of my top five least favorite Broadway songs. However, for the first time I actually enjoyed the number. Cupples has a beautiful soprano and is a fine actor as well.” – Community News (Click for full review!)



“Lauren Cupples as Johanna is tragic but again relatable: not a chaste maid from 19th-Century London but a haunted and sexually-explorative modern girl, who ranges from limp complacence within the Judge’s lecherous embrace, to drawing Anthony to the floor in “Kiss Me” for a bit of a make-out session. It doesn’t hurt that the ingénues have two of the company’s best voices.” –Broad Street Review (Click for full review!)


The Fantasticks - The Princeton Festival

Picture
Luisa and Matt make magic.
“Cupples makes Luisa as innocent as the pink and white dress that she wears.” – Star Ledger


”Ms. Cupples sang with an appealing and light voice…Luisa’s overriding attribute was innocence, and Ms. Cupples solidly portrayed this characteristic, singing especially well in the jazzy opening number to Act II.” – Town Topics (Click for full review!)
 


Delco Idol Competition at the Media Theatre

Why, I do declare!


“…she has a knock-your-socks-off soprano voice as clear as a mountain spring and varied as Kurt Weill’s “Mack the Knife” and a Gabriel Faure aria.” - The Delaware County Times ( Click for full article )
