Hannah as Eliza in Hamilton: Angelica Tour
"Cruz’s soulful voice is reminiscent of the role’s originator, Phillipa Soo, and she managed to portray the intense emotions this character goes through in a way that looked effortless."
https://pittnews.com/article/138934/arts-and-entertainment/hamilton-leaves-pittsburgh-audiences-speechless/
"It is very unlikely that the real Eliza beatboxed while her son rapped for papa Alexander. But actress Cruz, as Eliza, beatboxes like a champ, and you gotta see it to believe how well it works."
https://entertainmentcentralpittsburgh.com/center-stage/hamilton-review/
"Hannah Cruz's Eliza is a warmer, more self-assured presence than Pippa Soo, but this stronger portrayal keeps Eliza from fading into the woodwork among the more flamboyant characters before "Burn" returns Hamilton's wife to active prominence in the storyline. (Also, in a show as aesthetically far-reaching in personal grooming as Hamilton, it's a close race, but Cruz definitely has the BEST DAMN HAIRCUT in the show.)"

"Randy’s first guest was Hannah Rose DeFlumeri. Her rendition of “Losing my Mind” was a completely enchanting experience. With her eyes closed, immersed in her character, Hannah Rose sang with such longing, my eyes filled. I was sure that I’d hear a small, crystal sound as a piece of her broken heart fell to the floor."

http://kcmetropolis.org/issue/june-29-2016/article/bullets-over-broadway-makes-for-summer-fun-at-starlight
"Hannah Rose Deflumeri was the first standout performance of the evening as Ellen. Equal parts bookish girlfriend to writer David and independent woman, Deflumeri's powerhouse voice rang true in "Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me" and continues to elate throughout the evening."
- http://www.broadwayworld.com/dallas/article/BWW-Review-BULLETS-OVER-BROADWAY-Aims-to-Please-at-Dallas-Summer-Musicals-20160617
"Hannah Rose Deflumeri is adorable as Ellen, the poor girlfriend of our poor playwright, David. Deflumeri has one of the many excellent voices in the cast and gets a couple of great solo moments. She also does the most that can be expected with a fairly small and not well-developed role as written."

"My favorite person in the ensemble was Hannah Rose Deflumeri, David’s Pittsburgh sweetheart. She’s a convincing nice girl afloat in all the big city vulgarity and her pain and confusion is genuine as she sees her David fall into the predatory clutches of Helen Sinclair. Deflumeri tops off the performance with a sly and comic peak into her sensual proclivities…..And I definitely would seek out Hannah Rose’s Deflumeri’s next musical performance."

Hannah in "American Showstoppers: An Evening of Irving Berlin
"...the very funny “Secret Service” from Mr. President, Berlin’s last musical, in which the president’s daughter reveals her frustration with those “White House Dicks.” Young and lithe Hannah DeFlumeri had just the right, wide-eyed sweetness to put across some of the hilariously suggestive lyrics."

Hannah as eponine in "Les Miserables"
Hannah DeFlumeri's tragic Eponine (whose beautiful rendition of "On My Own" stopped the show)
-Howard m. Snyder
-Howard m. Snyder
"The final perfect moment is in the harmonious delivery of a line in the epilogue, sung by Sevier, Ashley Harris as Fantine and Hannah Rose DeFlumeri as Eponine. Maybe it was the words, maybe it was the singing, or maybe it was the culmination of the story as a whole, but I was stuck to the heart by the line: “To love another person is to see the face of God.”

Hannah as Vivienne Kensington in "Legally Blonde"
"2 actors are completely underrated – Nic Rouleau in a fantastic Emmett Forrest role, and Hannah Rose DeFlumeri in her Vivienne Kensington role, as the evil law student who becomes good friends with Elle in the end."
-Raul Pacheco, Humingbird604.com
-Raul Pacheco, Humingbird604.com
"Hannah Rose DeFlumeri is Vivienne, the hard, upscale girl for whom Warner drops Elle. DeFlumeri is icy and nasty at the beginning, but becomes effectively sympathetic by the end."

Hannah as Grizabella in "Cats"
Bowled over by @HannahDeFlumeri's stunning Grizabella -- thrilling and heartrending in equal measure In @FRPlayhouse's "Cats," @HannahDeFlumeri sings "Memory" with an array of vocal colors, investing each word with luminous emotion.
-Paul Hyde
-Paul Hyde
"The singing was on-spot, with enjoyable solos from Hannah Rose de Flumeri – who sings "Memory" with the delicacy and power that makes the ballad one of the musical’s most memorable and popular – as Grizabella and others blending with fine-tuned company numbers."
"an old glamour cat named Grizabella, played poignantly by Hannah Rose de Flumeri. De Flumeri delivers an incredible performance, singing the show's most recognizable piece, “Memory,” based on Eliot's marvelous poem, “Rhapsody on a Windy Night,” which is not in the book of cats. The song, beginning with despair in the first act, reprises with triumph in the second, and de Flumeri uses her relatively few moments on the stage to add multiple layers to the dying cat's character."
-Katie Winkler, Times-News
-Katie Winkler, Times-News
"It is a moving show, it is a happy show, it is an entertaining show, it is a variety show and it features a performance of "Memory" — by 21-year-old Hannah Rose de Flumeri — that's as good as any you'll hear on the Broadway or London stage. "
-Bill Moss, Hendersonville Lightning
-Bill Moss, Hendersonville Lightning
"Yet the audience responded with audible gasps to Hannah Rose de Flumeri as Grizabella, singing “Memory” with the delicacy and power that make the ballad one of the musical’s most memorable and popular."
