“Tori has a visceral confidence that is just beautiful to watch. It’s not bravado, it’s what you get when talent takes action.”

“Both Tori’s performance and her screenplay renewed my old joy in the theater. Tori held me mesmerized as I watched her character move through so many changes not just of mood but transform herself so that she seemed to metamorphosis into the beauty that glows in the last moments of the film. I watched both Olivier and Gielgud on the stage show the audience that strange magic and Tori had it in “The Girls of Summer”.”

“Great writing, amazing performance with compelling and expressive eyes! (review of “The Girls of Summer”) ”

“You are the heart and soul of something I would have never had the chance to make, had it not been for your professionalism, determination, and adaptability.”
