Catie Osborn
Osborn’s silent expressions and mannerisms speak more than some actors can with a full script.
David Burke, Quad City Times, 3 April 2012
My favorite acting moment, however, came from Catie Osborn. There’s a point in the play where her character, Thaisa, confesses her love for Pericles, and the performer was so heartfelt, so seemingly sincere, that I was moved to tears. Osborn manages to express an uncontainable inner joy, bubbling forth as she speaks of her love, and the emotion is beautiful in its believability.
