"She could easily seem fey or just plain irritating. But Laura Norman moderated Harper's dopey ethereality with a wry humor and a sense of groundedness. Her interpretation was potent, but also wonderfully unassuming."
- Westword Best of Denver
"Norman maintained an honest, affable whimsy as she teetered between her real and imagined worlds. Of the thousands of words uttered over six hours, Norman's sensitive recrimination echoes: "It's a sin, and it's killing us both."
- Denver Post Ovation Awards
Best Supporting Actress in a Drama - A Body of Water
"Laura Norman took this baffling role and played it with feeling, hinting at an unknowable but fascinating subtext, and as a result, she held the audience spellbound."
- Westword Best of Denver
Review - Angels in America
"...seizing her moment is Laura Norman as Harper, the sex-starved, pill-popping Mormon wife whose husband Joe is coming to terms with his latent homosexuality. Morose while still utterly charming...she struggles to face real-life demons when it's so much easier for her to embark on delicious flights of fantasy, such as a mental sojourn to Antarctica, home of the silent Eskimo of her dreams."
- John Moore, Denver Post
Reviews - The Weir
"And whether you believe in faeries or not, Laura Norman will prove to you that there are pixies. The presence of this lovely actor on stage brings Dodd's directorial vision into sharp focus."
- David Marlowe, Out Front
"...led by the luminous Laura Norman as Valerie, the cast exhibits not a single weak link. Valerie's story could easily be a sobfest, but Norman tells it with a restraint more devastating than a fury of weeping. Even when she says nothing, she's the effortless focus of the action, listening to the others with humor and generosity."
- Juliet Wittman, WestwordReview - A Body of Water
"Norman's Wren brings a refreshing physicality to the cerebrally inclined conversation..."
- Bob Bows, Denver Post
Review - How We May Know Him
"Laura Norman's human and compelling performance in an array of smaller roles is a potent reminder of just what a fine actress she is. A company that hires Norman and doesn't use her in a leading role is either blind or very rich in acting talent..."
- Juliet Wittman, Westword
Review - Matt & Ben
"...Norman is an incredibly smart actor (most apparent when, as Ben, she attempts a British accent that brilliantly strays from Cockney to botched Italian in a single sentence)."
- John Moore, Denver Post
Review - Shining City
"Laura Norman gives a scathingly brilliant portrayal of a wife who will do anything to save her marriage ... even if it means the emotional death of her husband."
- David Marlowe, Out Front
