Hello Dolly!
"...I saw Carol Channing in the 1993 revivial, Barbra
Streisand in the movie, Tovah Feldshuh at the Paper Mill Playhouse, all different, yet each in her own way superb, yet I’ve
never before seen the show done with as much joy and gusto as it was performed this evening. Those actors onstage
were having a ball! The show was directed by Lee Roy Reams, and starred Christine Toy Johnson as Dolly, with Carla Ogden,
Austin Ku, Raul Aranas, Rebecca Lee Lerman, Karl Josef Co, Sam Tanabe, Alex Chester, and Jaygee Macapugay. Every single
one of them was entertaining us and loving their roles. What enthusiasm!" -Carolyn Quinn blogspot, April 30, 2013
THE HOUSE
OF VON MACRAME "The entire cast is,
literally, a scream." - Clifford Lee Johnson, BACKSTAGE, January 24th, 2013
"...between laughing at the
constant stream of one liners and marveling at the perfectly executed rock harmonies and dance moves, it's hard to pick just
one reason to go." -Jessica Cauttero, BROOKLYN
EXPOSED, January 29th, 2013 "A cast of young pretties and copious use of fake blood also helps." - Megin Jimenez, NYtheater.com, January 26th, 2013
SHANGHAI LIL'S, a crowd pleasing musical "The show's chief attraction is its bright and likable cast....In smaller
roles, Rebecca Lee Lerman, Lisa Villamaria, and Timothy Ng sparkle as Hyacinth,
Peony, and Jerry." -Clifford Lee Johnson III, Backstage (November, 2011)
How the Day Runs Down Reviews "...as a brother and sister (played with a perfect
combination of playfulness and impetuousness by Rebecca Lee Lerman and Erwin Falcon)
tempt fate by hunting the walking dead as they rise" - Michael
Mraz, nytheater.com (July, 2011)
Beautiful Thing Reviews
"Rebecca Lee Lerman's Leah is a delight, a raunchy
moth flitting her wit against anyone in range. She overcomes the playwright's annoying over-reliance on Mama Cass to create
a character who is beautiful because she is not afraid to be ugly." -August Schulenberg, nytheater.com (July 9th, 2010)
"A shining light in the production is Leah, played
by Rebecca Lee Lerman, who steals the show with her bright spark of a Mama Cass fan - no she's more than
a fan, Leah invokes the most serious and loving aficionado who lives for Mama's music and sings it often in this show. And
every time she did, I smiled."--Janelle Lannan, www.theasy.com (July 20th, 2010)
"Another star studded part of the show was Rebecca
Lee Lerman, who sang the daylights out a song that nobody but her knows the words to. Even though the point of the
scene was for her to sing bad and hurt eardrums, it came as surprise that her loud rambunctious voice shined through, even
though the dramatization required the exact opposite. She played Leah, a friend of Jamies and bit of a trouble maker.....with
some of the scenes being a bit noir, she had the eyes of a sad cat, and definitely didnt have a problem making
the audience feel the exact emotion that her character was feeling at the time." -Michael A. Cruz, REVIEWFIX (July 31st 2010)
"Lerman does a great job with her madcappery, delivering
sharp dialogue with a highly enjoyable dose of venom." --Doug Strassler, offoffonline.com (July 21st, 2010)

Singing at Various Events
"But on Monday nights, the demure receptionist transforms herself
into a sultry singing sensation....It begins the moment she steps onto the nightclub stage...leans into a microphone and delivers a stirring rendition of "Someone To Watch Over Me" -Heidi Evans, NEW YORK DAILY NEWS (2007)
Cambodia Agonistes Reviews "Rebecca Lee Lerman's sarcastic Comrade Neary.....contribute astute
