Managing Maxine
Human Race Theatre Company

“Debra Whitfield and Tim Lile are excellent as Maxine's fussy daughter Emmie and discontented son-in-law Larry trying to rekindle their loveless marriage, a relatable subplot that evolves with potency and never feels inconsequential.”

Northern New Jersey Theater Examiner
By Rick Busciglio
“A must see is Ira Levin's chilling tale of Veronica's Room on stage now at the Bickford Theatre in Morristown. Debra Whitfield is perfect as The Woman. Excellent thriller."

“... Rounding out the marvelous cast is Debra Whitfield, who plays Jekyll's obedient, unquestioning butler, Poole, as well as a surgical student, a police doctor and a maid. She, too, plays a version of Hyde.”

Love and Math: A Perfect Equation
By Alvin Klein
“…impeccably chosen cast hits all chords precisely. The emissary of normality and convention, Claire, Catherine’s urbanely sophisticated sister, is played by Debra Whitfield. Her performance avoids the patronizing smugness with which this role can be misinterpreted.”

A Streetcar Named Desire
Theater Works
Long Boat Observer
GOING BACK TO NEW ORLEANS
By Marty Fugate
“More impressively, Whitfield doesn’t serve up a bowl of reheated Vivien Leighher Blanche is a smart, original characterization. Instead of being a faded Southern flower, she’s a strong, intelligent, self-motivated woman who gradually cracks under the intense pressure of inner guilt and outer tragedy. A weakling she’s notand she’s certainly not crazy. Having her committed is clearly a trick. You could easily imagine this Blanche DuBois escaping from the asylum and, going back to New Orleans to push Stanley in front of a streetcar."

Antony and Cleopatra
The WorkShop Theater Company
Show Business
By Katharine Critchlow
“But most striking in this production is the skill of the actors…they handle the changes in their own characters with finesse. Debra Whitfield’s Cleopatra evolves from a petulant, oversexed adolescent into a noble queen who would rather take her life than surrender.”
