  • "The leading role of the Girl is portrayed with so much depth, drama and raw emotion by Tatiana Bustamante. They were recently seen in BoHo Theatre’s 'National Merit,' in addition to other notable performances, but this is the role that will make Tatiana a name that everyone will remember. She’s not only an accomplished young actor, but a beautiful singer, as well. Tatiana is, without question, the true heart and soul of this production."

    CHICAGO THEATRE REVIEW (Refuge at Theo Ubique)

  • "Bustamante nails the pathos and anger of watching her fiancé plot with Marley to steal Mr. Fezziwig's company."
