Ma Moss, The Tender Land
"Ma Moss (played by Sarah-Nicole Carter) portrays a typical mother from the 1930s who stays at home doing the cleaning, cooking, and sewing. Her strong contralto voice sang about the blessings of the harvest. Carter’s expressions clearly portrayed the worry and skepticism of a mother with strangers around her daughter."
Utah Theater Bloggers
"The Tender Land is the crowning achievement of a triumphant season for the Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre.
It’s the perfect show in the perfect setting with the perfect cast."
"The cast was, without exception, simply marvelous."

Third Lady, The Magic Flute
"There is no one that writes for women’s voices like Mozart, and audiences get to hear that splendid expertise in the opening scene of The Magic Flute when Tamino enters, pursued by a nasty serpent and sings, “Help! Help!” (Zu Hilfe! Zu Hilfe!”). This segues into the trio for three sopranos, “Die, monster, by our might!” (“Stirb, Ungeheuer, durch uns’re Macht!”), beautifully sung by the Three Ladies: Amber Rose Romero, Tzytle Steinman and Sarah-Nicole Carter, who kill the monster and rescue Tamino. The scene is a joy to listen to."
Utah Theater Bloggers
"The opening trio — the Three Ladies, played by Amber Romero, Tzytle Steinman and Sarah-Nicole Carter — was tight and strong and presented a great start."
Deseret News
"Not only determination inspires Tamino, but the true love he falls into when the Queen’s three ladies (Amber Rose Romero, Tzytle Steinman, and Sarah-Nicole Carter) show Tamino a picture of Pamina. You’ll be covered in a blanket of magic harmonies when this trio take the stage."

Berta, The Barber of Seville
"Berta, the governess, played to perfection by Sarah-Nicole Carter, makes brief but often hilarious appearances in which she bemoans her life as a spinster and is clearly annoyed by the shrewd Doctor Bartolo." Front Row Reviewers "In the role of the ever-observant servant Berta, Sarah-Nicole Carter delivers a small gem of an aria about the foolishness of her well-bred employers during what feels like the opera’s seventh-inning stretch." HJ News "Watch for Sarah-Nicole Carter as Berta, the governess, who [steals] a few moments of [her] own, often as an aside to the main action." Deseret News "Sarah-Nicole Ruddy-Carter conveys a sharp wit and wistfulness as the lovelorn maid Berta..." Modesto Bee |

Kate, Pirates of Penzance, San Diego Opera
