Testimonials
Theater is such a wonderfully collaborative effort. The meeting of all art forms.
I have been buoyed up by a great many artists along the way...
"Eva Gil is filled with all the paradoxical qualities that make a great actor - lightness and weight, funny and emotional, sexy and innocent, smart and instinctive. With her focused mind and kind soul, it's been a pleasure and an honor working with her in both film and theatre. She's the real deal."
-Stephen Cone, Filmmaker, cone arts
"Eva Gil is quite simply a wonderful actress. Her ease with text and her warm approach to character always raise both her performances and the entire production to a higher level. I am a better playwright for having written for Eva."
-Philip Dawkins, Playwright
"Eva Gil is an enormous talent. Whether working on a film or a theatrical pieces, Miss. Gil brings her great sense of understanding to both the dialogue and the character of any piece. To top it off she's one of the most easy going actresses I've ever worked with. I'd work with her again in a heartbeat."
Mateo Moreno, writer/director "Days"
"I'm very willing to be quoted on your site, so, maybe something pithy like, ‘Eva rocks!’ or ‘Eva was brilliant in Some Such Luck and I hope to have the pleasure of working with her again.’ All true."
-Liz Duffy Adams, Playwright
"It was a real challenge finding just the right actress to play Catherine in A View from the Bridge in our intimate space. In addition to being one of Arthur Miller's iconic female characters, the role requires a rare combination of innocence coupled with a youthful sexuality that is just bursting into bloom. When Eva Gil walked into the room, our search was over…before she read for the role."
-Michael Colucci, Artistic Director, Redtwist Theatre
"Eva Gil absolutely loves what she does, and she's interested in every single aspect that goes into it. This doesn't come from a place of ego -- she genuinely believes that art can enrich, can educate, can bring people together, can heal and nurture. She is humbled by it and honored by it. And any piece of art she's involved in is a hundred times the better for it. Oh, and bonus -- she's really, really good at it, too."
-Bryan Enk, Filmmaker
