For How I Learned to Drive:
"As Li’l Bit, Hertz spectacularly transforms from a naïve 11-year-old into a jaded 18-year-old and back again, exploring with ease her tempestuous relationship with her grandparents, mother and Uncle Peck. Hertz achieves moments of true sincerity, an invaluable skill for any actor." -Carolyn Beard, The Daily Princetonian
For Metamorphoses:
"Caroline Hertz is powerfully affecting as Alcyone, Myrrha and others." -Don Gilpin, Town Topics
For Eurydice:
"There are only seven characters: Eurydice (the lovely and extremely talented Caroline Hertz)..." -Stu Duncan, PrincetonInfo.com
"In the title role, Ms. Hertz is excellent in portraying a wide range of emotions and in establishing her relationships with Orpheus, her father and the other curious individuals she encounters. This formidable young actress delivers an inspired, moving, entertaining finale to a superb 2015 season." -Town Topics
