"As Ruth, Kanyike is just superb: funny, poignant, real."

-The Boston Globe

"I was blown away by Lorraine Victoria Kanyike last year in The Front Porch Arts Collective's "Chicken & Biscuits," for which she received an Elliot Norton Award nomination for her side-splittingly hilarious performance."

-EDGE MEDIA NETWORK

"The two most impressive performances are the most ephemeral...the realism and vulnerability of Kanyike’s performance will be a revelation catalyst for many attendees."
