“Gardner does a fabulous job in the lead role and has an amazing voice.” - Onstage Colorado, Karen Mason
Spring Awakening
“Ilse…a childhood friend (true soprano Abigail Gardner) reaches out to him in a lovely counterpoint duet, "Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind," in which she reminds him of playing pirates long ago…she lead the company in “Song of Purple Summer,” a beautifully done and deeply evocative song” - TheatreJones, Martha Heimberg
A Chorus Line
"A clever novelty number is “Dance 10; Looks 3” which is performed by Abigail Gardner as Valerie. Gardner is cute and funny as she sings about how plastic surgery “enhanced” her life, and her performance is reminiscent of a 1930s screwball comedy." -DC Metro
"As Valerie, Abigail Gardner dances, cartwheels and splits, all while singing, during the crowd-pleasing "Dance: Ten; Looks: Three." - Broadway World DC Jeremy Bustin
"...including the song “Dance: Ten; Looks: Three,” in which Val (played with delightful verve by Abigail Gardner) vividly describes the plastic surgery and other enhancements she sought in her path to success on the stage." - The Free Lance-star
