Through the Sunken Lands
Kennedy Center Theater for Young Audiences
“Sillers' Maggie is strong, worn, and hopeful…Her deep, dulcet, and oaky voice really painted the sonic world of the show beautifully.”
The 39 Steps
NextStop Theatre Company
“Setting the whole deadly plot into motion this fateful night was Sarah Anne Sillers as the femme fatale track. Her agent was slinky and short-lived, her sheriff brogue danced a highland fling, and her innkeeper’s wife was nonsensical, all in the best ways possible. Falling in and out of the most characters of any track in the production, Sillers had sixth sense for pushing the farce right to the edge, and her over-the-top facial expressions in every role she embodied would have made Danny Kaye proud.”
Songs for a New World
Monumental Theatre Company
“As a showcase for local actors, Songs for a New World soars… Sarah Anne Sillers reeks of booze and desperation as a scorned socialite in ‘Just One Step’ and reserves enough of that unhinged envy to imagine a bitter Mrs. Claus in ‘Surabaya-Santa.’”
“Sarah Anne Sillers (Woman 2) is delightful with her winking sarcasm and powerful voice, but also leaves the audience stunned with the heart wrenching ‘The Flagmaker, 1775.’”
“Literally breathtaking… [Sillers] attacks her scenes and belts out her songs with a fearlessness that’s set for Broadway as soon as it opens up. Her theatrical flair shines through as the neglected wife of a high earner in ‘Just One Step’ and a hilarious raucous number where she berates St. Nick himself for neglecting her as the Missus.”
Ordinary Days
NextStop Theatre Company
“Sillers expertly built towards her character’s big emotional reveal, sowing the seeds of Claire’s hidden grief from the beginning. Even from her first song, the seemingly-lighthearted “Let Things Go,” Sillers captured my attention both with her voice — a clear mezzo-soprano, in the vein of Laura Osnes, but with a slightly folksy quality — and the intensity and honesty of her performance. Though all of the actors drew me into the same extent over the course of the show, she achieved it within moments of stepping onstage.”
Huckleberry Finn’s Big River
Adventure Theatre MTC
“The second number, “Look a Here Huck,” is a lively jig that sums up Huck’s initial situation with the lyrics, “You’ll never be a grown-up ‘cause you won’t know how.” In this song, Sarah Anne Sillers’ expertise in acting and singing is apparent; her clear, spirited voice and gestures establish the high standard followed during the rest of the production.”
45 Plays for 45 Presidents
NextStop Theatre Company
"Production high points include a poignant glimpse of tragedy in the lives of Franklin Pierce and his wife (Brittany Martz and Sarah Anne Sillers) and Mary Myers’s impersonation of a bellicose Andrew Jackson."
"Sarah Anne Sillers commands the stage as POTUS #1, the reluctant George Washington."
A Grand Night for Singing
NextStop Theatre Company
"Musical theater heaven... A stellar cast that captivates with their bright personalities, lively dance, and beautiful voices makes for a delightful show."
"Prepare to be dazzled by Sarah Anne Sillers's 'Can't Say No'!"
Henri IV, Parts I and II
Brave Spirits Theatre
"Young Hallie is the real star of the show, weaving through both the comic and dramatic plots. Sarah Anne Sillers skillfully brings life to the character through all of these interactions, one of the most multi-faceted in Shakespeare’s canon. She is both funny and fearsome, finding Hallie as she grows up from a trackless young woman towards the duties and honors of a queen."
"Sarah Anne Sillers rocks as Hal hiding ferocity in puckish charm, and she has a strong voice for her songs, matching her strong acting skills."
Annette Mooney Wasno as Queen Henri IV and Sarah Anne Sillers as her daughter Prince Hallie had me speechless with their final scene together in which the line of succession is handed down. This magnificent scene was worth the price of admission.
The Cole Porter Project
The IN Series
"The star of the show, at least in our opinion, is Sarah Anne Sillers. Her portrayal of Sam, the energetic, iPhone and email obsessed young woman who is assisting in her former professor Pat’s Cole Porter campaign marvelously catches the spirit of nearly all the idealistic young people who settle in Washington every year…. Better yet, she’s surprisingly good at grasping the essentials of a 1930s Broadway show, delivering an authentic, bang-up vocal performance that nevertheless seems fresh and new."
"Sarah Anne Sillers... savor[s] 'Find Me a Primitive Man' in a sultry alto and swing[s] through her duets 'Let’s Misbehave,' and 'But In the Morning, No.'"
