"The first production of a new play is both exciting and terrifying. Louise was the perfect actress for the piece; not only because she infused Cebe with warmth, honesty, and a tremendous soul but also because she was able to work quickly with new pages. I would work with her again on any project."
Jacqueline Goldfinger, playwright The Oath
"We
had the immense pleasure of directing Louise in our
short film, 'Elli and the Astronaut.' Louise was –
simply put – lovely.
She committed herself to making each scene,
movement and breath of dialogue as pure as we had
envisioned. We
were amazed to witness how our vision attained new
levels of life under Louise's careful treatment of
her character - and that’s what we appreciated most.
She wanted to be there, she was determined to make a
great film, and she brought everything to the table.
If making a film is war, Louise
is the type of actor you want to be in the bunker
with."

Elli & the
Astronaut
"Louise filled a character, that is too often relegated to being "comic relief", with a history and life that made the comedy sparkle. I could always count on her to bring in well thought out, clear and unique approaches to the text."
Kat Vecchio, director Blue Surge The Wild Project
"I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with
Louise since 2007 and she's always my first choice
for a lead actress when I begin working on a
project. On 'Fields of November' that we
wrapped in March 2010 she was a great inspiration and
collaborator from the conception. She handled every
obstacle that was thrown at her with grace and
professionalism. The end result is
a tour de force performance
that
covers so many facets of acting it's going to really
show off her amazing talents and
beauty..."

"Louise Flory is a consummate professional. She is smart, talented, and works tirelessly at being the best in whatever role she is playing. I loved my experience working with her on 'The Oath' and I look forward to working with her again, and again."
Cristina Alicea, director The Oath
"Louise is
a powerful artist. She
immerses herself in a role to an astounding
degree.
She brought to life all the humour, toughness and
fragility of the character I
wrote in Sunset Motel. Within a thirty five minute
running time, she portrayed a complete
human being, not just a collection of ideas and
impulses. A joy to work
with."

Scott Napolitano, writer/director/producer Issues: The Series
"As a theatre director, I've had the unique privilege
of working with Louise Flory not only as an actor,
but simultaneously as a playwright as well. This
woman handled her double creative responsibilities
with ease, but what was even more inspiring was
the
courageous vulnerability Louise
brought to both her acting and her writing every
single day. A mark of a true artist."

"Louise Flory is a consummate professional with undeniable talent and drive. Her well-turned character work on 'Blue Surge' added great dimension to the piece; I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again."
Greg Taubman, Artistic Director Extant Arts Company
"Louise Flory played the lead in our first
independent feature film 'Paper Cut.'
She brought professionalism and grace to this
project and the seasoned sense of an actress twice
her age! Always
punctual and always hard working, she made the film
shoot easy and fun. She has the innate ability to
listen and follow direction, but also the ability to
understand the project at hand and contribute without
being overwhelming or overbearing. If I could work
with a hundred Louises filming movies would be the
easiest job in the world. From start to finish she
devotes 100% and I would work with her any and every
time I possibly can!"
Robert
Greenwood,

Paper Cut
"Louise has an exceptionally deep connection to her emotional life, and is an open listener to direction."
David Stallings, director Look After You 2009 NY International Fringe Festival SoHo Playhouse
"Louise Flory strives for (and achieves) a deep
emotional connection to the projects she takes on and
the roles she plays. She is eager to engage with the
work and the process to bring the work to
life.
A smart, vivacious
performer!"
