Heidi Berg

Awards

"It's a fuller portrait with satisfying epic sweep, performed in St. Paul with brutal integrity by Heidi Berg." - John Townsend - Medea: A Noh Cycle

"Berg, as the woman who mounts a one-woman campaign to investigate the aforementioned suspicious death, is the catalytic agent in the play. It's her performance -- at once sweet and tough -- she largely keeps things moving forward." - Dominic Papatola - Book of Days

"...The middle segment features Jared Reise and Heidi Berg as vacuous students with wildly divergent memories of a night spent in New York. They're entirely fascinating." Quinton Skinner - Bash

"Heidi Berg's empathetic Linda leaves memories of Diane Keaton behind." - Rob Hubbard - Play it Again, Sam
