OTHELLO at A Noise Within
Directed by Jessica Kubzanksy
“Also riveting [is] Sally Hughes as a crisp, in-command “duke” with Nancy Pelosi hair.”
- Daryl H. Miller, LA Times
“Mad love goes out to Sally Hughes! Her part as the Duke of Venice was great, but as Bianca, Cassio’s woman, she was hot and hella feisty.”
- Mary E. Montoro, Allaboutthestage.com
AS YOU LIKE IT at Antaeus Theare Co.
Directed by Rob Clare
“Hughes is charming as the exasperated Rosalind, whipsawing from bitter jibe to lovesick swoon sometimes in a single sentence.”

COLONY COLLAPSE at The Theatre @ Boston Court
Directed by Jessica Kubzanksy
“Chris Conner and Sally Hughes spar so realistically as Mark and Julia, struggling to keep their past addictions and current low finances in control. Both convincing being alternately passionate, frustrated, loving, supportive, and combative - just like an old married couple.”
- Gil Kaan, Broadwayworld.com
TOP GIRLS at Antaeus Theare Co.
Directed by Cameron Watson
“Hughes anchors the production with a lioness’ blend of strength, pride, isolation and strategic caution. She embraces Marlene’s contradictions, sweetening nothing yet deftly exposing the inner struggle.”
- Charles McNulty, LA Times
“As Marlene, Sally Hughes is a welcome addition to Antaeus, offering an affecting blend of power and melancholy.”
- Tony Frankel, Stage and Cinema
HENRY IV Part I at Antaeus Theatre Co.
Directed by Michael Murray
“Sally Hughes gives a passionate and charged portrayal as Hotspur’s wife. She is wonderfully realistic, believable and natural, and displays a fascinating range of emotions that make her the evening’s greatest surprise. The scenes with her husband are not to be missed.”
- Radomir Vojtech Luza, Nohoartsdistrict.com
OBAMAOLOGY at Skylight Theatre
Directed by Jon Lawrence Rivera
“Sally Hughes plays a no-nonsense campaign administrator, a convenience store saleswoman and a white suburban racist, and
she’s hilariously on point as all of them.”
- Deborah Klugman,
Capital & Main
Hamlet at Antaeus Theatre Co.
Directed by Elizabeth Swain
"And Sally Hughes, in a grand total of four male roles (most notably that of Guildenstern), not only clearly delineates one from the other, it’s a treat to see her gender-bending gifts revealed so entertainingly. (She’s also Voltemand, Reynaldo, and Fortinbras.)"
- Steven Stanley, Stage Scene LA
"Hughes’s ability to create lovable comedic characters turned a brief moment into something I could watch a whole play about."
- Todd Gaebe, Hollywood Revealed
