Bonnie & Clyde
...during a reunion with Bonnie (Clark) and Emma (Bonaventura) that brought the audience to tears...We see Emma shift from a confident, loving mother with comedic genius to a mother who is just as loving, but now is terrified of what horrible news could come to her at any moment.

Psycho Beach Party
“Chicklet's side-kick Berdine, played with magnificence by Kristine Bonaventura, is the uber-nerd extraordinaire. She intricately spits out complicated philosophical theories and names, like Nietzsche, as if she had studied them her whole life."

April Johnson

South Jersey Theatre Critics

Sordid Lives
“Kristine Bonaventura shines as the 'bad girl' of the family, LaVonda Dupree, teamed up with Amanda Frederick as Noleta Nethercott...a hysterical Thelma and Louise bit that brings the audience to their knees in laughter."

Disenchanted
"This show, showed that life isn't idyllic for fairy tale princesses. Even they can become victims of stereotyping and sexism...Kristine Bonaventura portrayed an angry Little Mermaid for the "Two Legs" number. Despite the character's bitterness, Bonaventure expressed it in a comical fashion."

The Morning Call

Sunday in the Park with George
“..."Art isn't easy." Sondheim musicals aren't easy either...Among the stand-outs: Kristine Bonaventura who sings a haunting solo as Seurat's mother in the first act and plays an acerbic 20th-century art critic in the second...”

The Shadow Box
“A story so laden with anguish required levity to lighten the tension. The performers enacted the well-placed humor in the show...Kristine Bonaventura's flamboyance and drunken dancing made the audience chuckle."
