Ogunquit Playhouse, ME
"Caserta...gets the audience chuckling a bit as she finds her way through improbable ventures. Her vocals are strong, yet nicely playful, especially in her contemporary number...“Love is an Open Door.” She also sets a tender mood with Hayman in their duet, “I Can’t Lose You,” while pulling off an inspirational “First Time in Forever."
- Dan Marois, Broadway World
"Adult Anna, played by Marilyn Caserta is outstanding. The show hinges on Caserta’s ability to convey Anna’s good nature and belief in the power of love. In addition to her incredible likability, she manages to have amazing chemistry with nearly every character in the show, making her so much fun to watch.""

The Sabbath Girl: A New Musical (World Premiere)
Penguin Rep Theatre, NY
"Standouts include...Angie's climactic 'A Life in Art,' where her (Marilyn's) belter chops bring the house down."
- Bruce Apar, Broadway World
West Side Story
Flat Rock Playhouse, NC
"Marilyn Caserta is brilliant as Maria, rising to the highs of new love as naturally as she falls into the depths of despair. Caserta crystallizes Maria’s beauty and unbounding youth with each perfect high note, forcing viewers to fall in love with her almost as deeply as poor Tony."
- Olivia Stuller, Hendersonville Lightning
"Sure, the late Natalie Wood will forever be remembered as Maria, but make room for Marilyn Caserta, who is knocking them dead with her incredible singing voice, nimble dancing, and all-in acting at Flat Rock. From the romantic fire escape scene until we see her collapsed on the stage in grief, Marilyn commands the stage."
- Steve Wong, Carolina Curtain Call
Cabaret
Area Stage Company, FL
"Caserta...is the performer who shines brightest in this 'Cabaret'. She belts with the best of 'em on 'Mein Herr', 'Maybe This Time' and the title song. She dances up a storm and she conveys Sally's appeal, her nearly unsinkable optimism and her considerable flaws."
- Christine Dolen, The Miami Herald
"Marilyn Caserta, who plays the part of Sally, delivers a stunning performance. Her stage presence is nothing less than world class. She is truly a vivacious talent, and could reprise the role on Broadway."
- Coral Gables the Magazine
"Caserta makes a fascinating Sally. Visually, she looks like a Kewpie doll with shining needy eyes and effusive energy. Emotionally, Caserta bravely tracks Sally's arc from carefree cluelessness to deterioration into tortured denial...Caserta's clarion voice belts 'Don't Tell Mama' and her 'Mein Herr' scorches the auditorium walls."
- Bill Hirschman, Florida Theatre On Stage
"We must single out Marilyn Caserta, who plays unpredictable cabaret performer Sally Bowles. Her rendition of the title song is superb. She understands what this song is about."
- Aaron Krause, Theatrical Musings
