Laurent Giroux

THE MOUSETRAP

“Mr. Paravicini is an immediate show-in for the crime, just by his suspicious actions and spy vs. spy glares.  Giroux captures the sinister role with a twist of wicked humor that delights.”
Paul Buehler
BROADWAYWORLD.COM

“An unexpected drop-in dapper Mr. Paravicini (Laurent Giroux) appearing somewhat sinister and mildly deranged.  Laurent Giroux’s portrayal of Mr. Paravicini was extremely funny; he seemed very comfortable in his role and really knew how to “work it”.  It showed in his every movement, every facial expression.”

MAN OF LA MANCHA

“Laurent Giroux skillfully portrays THE PADRE and his “To Each His Dulcinea” is an impressive work of artistry.”
Buzz Bellmont
HOUSTON CHRONICLE

“Playing THE PADRE Laurent Giroux was stellar.  His character bought into the tale of Don Quixote with reckless abandon, which really made Laurent Giroux shine during I’m Only Thinking of Him”, the sentimental “To Each His Dulcinea” [reprise] and his sobering, melancholic rendition of “The Psalm”.

CARNIVAL

“and {Laurent Giroux) as the vain and grandiose circus-master Schlegel. If you can make the trip to Goodspeed ASAP, do so, since the excellent Giroux — whose supercilious glare seems capable of exerting some dark magic of it’s own– must depart on August 18.”

“as Rooster Laurent Giroux is so slick he’s virtually human lubricant and provides a needed note of menace.”
by Mary Carol Mc Cauley THE JOURNAL SENTINAL

by Ken Glickman

THE THREEPENNY OPERA

“The show’s truest menace and most riveting moments come from Laurent Giroux who is even more mesmerizing as The Street Singer than he was in the role over a decade ago. If one wants to see Brecht and Weill done most authoritatively one needs look no farther than Giroux.”
by Ralph Hammann
THE ADVOCATE

by Bob Goepfert THE RECORD

SHE LOVES ME

“A standout is Laurent Giroux who makes his only appearance at the end of Act 1 as the WAITER at the Cafe Imperial, if anyone proved true the old adage “There are no small roles, only small actors” Giroux is it. He takes a relatively small part and turns it into not only a scene stealing role, but a show stealing one. This is the type of person you are willing to hang around the backstage door in the cold to meet.”
by Sherri L Shaulis
THE DOMINION POST

“another standout performance is Laurent Giroux as the simpering, cynical but sentimental Headwaiter.”
