REVIEWS
The Savannah Sipping Society
"Sauer as Jinx Jenkins...reveals herself to be the wise one of the group. That transition happens seamlessly and by the end you find yourself identifying with her the most. Sauer has a way of making her character's wisdom feel internal and authentic." (The Stages of MN, April 15, 2023)

"Gina Sauer, as Sydney, is the beating heart of the story...emotionally, she conveys the weariness of a woman who has traveled a hard road, loved and lost passionately, and now wants nothing more than peace." (Talkin' Broadway, Oct. 23, 2019)
Apples in Winter
"Gina Sauer's performance is also remarkable; not only does she recite a 75-minute monologue, but she also conveys Miriam's full range of emotions, all while making a pie! It's quite a feat, and quite fun to watch." (Cherry and Spoon, June 1, 2018)
"Performing a one woman show is a feat in and of itself, Sauer does it effortlessly. From the moment she walks through the side door to the kitchen, she never drops character...Sauer masterfully takes the audience through Miriam's life and journey...This script showcases Sauer through the wide range of emotion she must portray, often switching at a moment's notice. Keep in mind while she does all of this, she is baking a pie." (brettalk.com, June 6, 2018)
"Miriam is played by Gina Sauer, and she gives a fantastic performance...Miriam is the only person on 'stage' and while she is telling this story, emoting, getting you the audience involved - she is also making a pie!!...It is an amazing performance." (Life in Revue, June 4, 2018)
Lace Curtain Irish
"Gina Sauer delivers a penetrating and poignant performance as the maid of infamous axe-murderer Lizzie Borden." (Lavender Magazine, Jully 16, 2015)
Leah's Train
"Gina Sauer is just delightful as a mother who is struggling with the loss of her mother, the angst of her relationship with her own daughter, and still rejoicing on her own new lease on life." (Aisle Say -Twin Cities, March 7, 2015)
