PRESS
Aviva Pressman is a magnetic storyteller. -Broadway World
Aviva Pressman gives a beautifully grounded, nuanced performance. -Times of San Diego
She has great comic timing and lands all her laughs before turning into a wounded child in the very next moment. -Gay Desert Scene
Whether not-so-coyly enticing Frederic or militantly leading the band of policemen to attack the pirates, she is a powerhouse. -Davis Enterprise
Pressman is also especially good at showing the aging of their characters through her physical movements.- San Diego Tribune
..Pressman's worker poured her heart out, [which] was among the show's most moving episodes. -Jay Harvey Upstage
Terrific…big, bold, loud, and colorful. Loud, curvy, and opinionated, she makes her presence known in any room. One moment, the audience is stunned by her brazenness and explicit humor; the next, we want to give her a hug. -CV Independent
the beautifully voiced Aviva Pressman -Sacramento Bee
Lovely soprano -Sacramento News & Review
Aviva Pressman has her ensemble drawing the scenery in jaw-dropping synch with the rest of the business. -Backscatter
Aviva Pressman’s live art design, where the cast quickly draws pictures on a huge white paper backdrop, is amazingly good, particularly considering how little time the actors have to create the art. -Stage Raw
Pressman a thoughtful bookworm... [is] polished and appears to have a wonderful time portraying the chaos of a modern home…to the delight of the audience. -Maryland Theatre Guide
DEADLIFT REVIEWS (Aviva's One Woman Show)
While Deadlift would certainly be beautiful if presented on stage, it's perfect as it is. - Broadway World
Deadlift is fulfilling and moving, hilarious and honest. - Broadway World
Deadlift utilizes Pressman’s many gifts without ever seeming to be a showcase. Her singing is merely glimpsed through a couple of casual throw-aways but was thrilling nonetheless. The piece comes from a place of “This is for you” rather than “Look at me”, a rare and welcome quality for a one-person show. - Gia on the Move
fabulous...beautifully structured, too, the story plus the art - Joanna Gleason, Broadway legend
...so beautiful! Laughed and cried a lot, thought about what kind of parents we want to be...so lovely -Madhuri Shekar, prolific playwright and screenwriter
Warm, inviting, funny, and impactful..charming and exciting - Jeremy Aluma, President of the Alliance for Jewish Theatre
