Hannah as Eliza in Hamilton: Angelica Tour
" Hannah Cruz a dedicated and stalwart Eliza"
https://www.broadwayworld.com/louisville/article/BWW-Review-HAMILTON-at-Broadway-In-Louisville-20190610
"...many delights, including Hannah Cruz’s portrayal of Eliza Hamilton and her harrowing delivery of familial conflict in “Burn”
https://www.kentucky.com/entertainment/performing-arts/article231381983.html
"Cruz’s Eliza has a bubbly sweetness to her, but she’s also unafraid to be ferociously angry, as in her heartrending solo, “Burn” and even before, as she tries to hold her husband’s quenchless, flighty ambition in check during “Non-Stop.”

"The acting was outstanding, especially Hannah Cruz as Eliza Hamilton. Several times her all-too-believable reactions made us ache and cringe and gasp."

"Hannah Cruz was also a real treat as Eliza Schuyler. Her strength shone especially through her voice, and yet my favorite part about her Eliza was her raw, authentic performance. With binoculars in hand, I could see Cruz tearing up at emotional scenes throughout the show. Anytime an actor is able to connect with their character so much to the point where they're crying every night, it adds so much more to a musical that already has so much going for it."

"Hannah Cruz is dazzling as Eliza Hamilton. She literally made the audience gasp at the end. Cruz is especially intriguing because of the way she lets her character flower. ... As the musical progresses, Cruz’s Eliza grows, becomes stronger, a more important part of the narrative until it is her story to tell."

"Hamilton’s wife – played by Hannah Cruz – has a voice that tops anything you’ll hear on the radio. And it has a crystal, piercing quality is almost not of this world. She thundersemotion, from the joy of her budding love for a young Hamilton, to the incredible heartbreak of the play’s last moments, which leave her and some in the audience in tears."

"As Hamilton’s wife Eliza, Hannah Cruz embodies both the bright-eyed and “Helpless” young woman in love and the heartbroken anger of a betrayed spouse. Her rendition of “Burn” is electric, raw, and devastating; honestly, it’s the best version I’ve heard. From the first act until the show’s final moments, Cruz had me absolutely captivated."

"Another key element of this show and its plot is the character of Eliza Hamilton (Hannah Cruz). Although Aaron Burr and Hamilton seem to be the primary focus, the show is arguably as much about her and her story as it is them. We follow Eliza as she falls for Hamilton, becomes his wife, and then must stay strong and supportive as he fights for his beliefs in a way that isn’t always entirely graceful. Hannah Cruz’s emotional dedication to the character and what she is going through is amazing. She makes you feel every word right along with her and has a powerful voice and presence."

"Cruz’s Eliza is something you don’t see coming right away. She’s fun to watch in Helpless — and sings it lovely — as a doe-eyed woman who has fallen head-over-heels for Hamilton. While it’s great to watch people who are in love, it’s the show’s later moments — when she’s heartbroken for a variety of reasons — that you can’t take your eyes off Cruz. Her rendition of Burn is filled with so much anguish and hurt, and just plain heartbreak, that it’s amazing to think only a few songs ago she was so happy. Cruz’s evolution as Eliza is one of the best parts of the production."

"...but nothing comes close to Cruz’s heartfelt solo, “Burn.” She was truly magnificent."

"Heartbreaking Hannah Cruz as Hamilton’s long-suffering yet stoic wife Eliza. Cruz brings down the house with her turn in the second act, wronged repeatedly by Hamilton’s high-minded, myopic ways. If you aren’t a puddle when she “removes herself from his narrative,” you ain’t human."

"Cruz is striking in her portrayal of Eliza on whom Miranda brilliantly closes the play."
https://www.encoremichigan.com/2019/03/hamilton-rocks-the-ages-at-the-fisher-theatre/
"Cruz took the role of the leading lady and made it all her own. She gave a breathtaking performance, and her vocal talent blew the audience away — especially when almost everyone in the audience teared up with her performance of “Burn.”
https://oaklandpostonline.com/27140/life-arts/hamilton-blows-fisher-theatre-audience-away/
"Cruz exudes joy, kindness, gentleness and strength every time she enters the stage. The first time the audience really gets to know Eliza is in her Act I solo “Helpless” — a love letter to her relationship with Hamilton. Cruz’s storytelling is wonderful, and her voice seems to float on clouds as it flows over the melody. Without giving too much away, the show explores a drastic change in Eliza’s seemingly happy life, which she discusses in the Act II ballad “Burn.” The character arc that Cruz depicts in this song is indescribable. She is 100 percent raw and honest in that moment, and it’s heartbreaking. My advice? Bring tissues — you’ll need them."

"Hannah Cruz is dazzling in her heartfelt performance as Eliza Hamilton. In songs like "Burn," Cruz uses dark colors to paint her character's agony as she is betrayed by her husband and then loses her son and her husband to duels."

"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.)"

"Hannah Cruz dons stylish, period curls on half her head and an edgy, shaved look on the other as Hamilton’s wife, Eliza Schuyler, blending upper class elegance with posh, contemporary fashion. Her voice is a fluttery, sweet delight, impressively controlled and powerful even when singing grittily through anguish and tears in “Burn” when she finds out about her husband’s affair."

"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."

HANNAH AS Ellen IN "Bullets over Broadway"
"Hannah Rose DeFlumeri was pretty and charming as his sweet but also naughty girlfriend Ellen. "
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."

-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 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."
