"Shakespeare & Co’s excellent cast in the Berkshire Premiere of ‘Red Velvet’ by Anglo-Indian playwright Lolita Chakrabarti... Standouts were... Christianna Nelson whose transformation in acting three roles was unrecognizable from role to role. An amazingly talented actress Ms Nelson. "

"Christianna Nelson plays three very different women and she is vitally different in each of them. She is Margaret Aldridge, wife of the actor, whose Scottish burr is delicate and affirmative. She shows devotion with complete sincerity. As actress Betty Lovell she is pert, pretty and petite, blond in the good ways and a darling in every way possible. Her first and final appearance as a Polish reporter adds nuance and humanity to her work in this show. She is a peach."
J. Peter Bergman, The Berkshire Edge
"Christianna Nelson plays three roles, each better than the other."
"Inspired direction... Prepare to discover your heart lurching into your throat."
"Exquisitely conceived and performed... a production that stands as prime example of theater as a fully integrated form that provokes, stimulates, engages, transforms."
Jeffrey Borak, The Berkshire Eagle
