REVIEWS-HOW ALFO LEARNED TO LOVE/Stagebuddy.com "Joanna was terrific as the matriarch Maria", "LOVER AND OTHER STRANGERS"/TMW - Bonaro was spot on and gives a performance for the ages. THE ART OF THINKING "Joanna as Caminer,showed abundant stage presence,as if warming up for Les Liaisons Dangereuses" OPERA NEWS/DIVINITY BASH "Joanna as the drunken dominatrix let her character seep out of her pores-you could smell the liquor on her. She brings a sense of poignancy to her role" .
