Devil of Choice
“Jarringly enthusiastic to begin with, Pepper (Paula Pizzi) is played brilliantly, her ignorance becoming achingly painful to endure as the affair develops.”
— Sash Abrahams, August 2019
FACE CREAM
"...an attempt to explore with humor the subject of aging and our ideals of feminine beauty, and two fine actors, Bruce MacVittie and Paula Pizzi, give it their best shot"

"The mother Lizbel is elegantly played by Paula Pizzi"

Where’s My Money?
“There is no weak link in this fine ensemble. The contrasts between the passionate but happy-go-lucky Gottesman and the by-the-numbers, career-minded Pizzi in the opening scene are marvelous; Pizzi's demeanor shifts perceptibly in the following scene as she confronts Henry. We've seen both of these actors doing good work before (Gottesman in Unmerciful Good Fortune, Pizzi in Wit), but their performances here exceed out expectations.”
—Les Gutman
WIT
“The director Derek Anson Jones could not have cast the role with a more profound sense of where the play's conscience lies. Ms. Pizzi's Susie is a lamb until her patient requires a tiger, and it is when this actress crosses over to fierceness in the climactic scene that ''Wit'' gives full vent to the outrages against the soul that some doctors may perpetrate in the name of fixing the body.”
— Peter Mark, 1998
Clean
“The same sensibility marks the deeply felt performances, particularly from Ms. Pizzi and Mr. Quintero, an adult actor who plays childhood without cuteness or condescension. And Ms. Daniele's gentle, lucid direction steers the evening away from its potential for lurid melodrama.”
— Ben Brantley, April 1995
