On playing Mrs. Greene in “The Prom” (2024):
“Fully encapsulating the ruthlessness of Mrs. Greene, Liz Mulligan is the epitome of that character’s villainous existence. It’s hard to truly label the Mrs. Greene character as ‘villain’ because in the character’s eyes, she’s just standing up for what she believes in (however wrong those beliefs of exclusivity, bigamy, and prejudice may be) but Mulligan does a superb job of channeling all of the ills and antagonizing mannerisms, as well as facial expressions and body language that really make the character difficult to swallow. While the Mrs. Greene character doesn’t have a song, there are moments where Mulligan gets to showcase her vocal capabilities, which are on par with the rest of the amazing talent in the production. Watching her during the PTA assembly, particularly once Dee Dee barnstorms the meeting with “It’s Not About Me”, is a true honest to God riot of fun— her facials and her overly animated body language is a real scream and you don’t know whether to laugh at her or just be horrified at her responses. The unyielding rigidity which Mulligan utilizes for 90% of the show creates a sharp juxtaposition for her emotionally disruptive fissure during her final moments on stage before “It’s Time to Dance” and it’s a really striking moment.”

On playing Gussie Carnegie in "Merrily We Roll Along" (2024):
“Liz Mulligan as Gussie Carnegie, Jim Adams as Joe Johnson, and Joani Calles as Beth Spencer are truly excellent supporting cast members.”
-Cybele Pomeroy, DC Theater Arts
“The script saddles the character of Gussie Carnegie with multiple unflattering female stereotypes, but Liz Mulligan shows amazing conviction in such a vile role.”
-Stephen Duda, TheatreBloom
On Liz’s Ensemble work in “Putting it Together” (2023):
“Liz Mulligan and Christian Hudspeth round out the cast backing the couples and Malek. With their high energy, it is a shame that neither have solos or duets.”
-Charles Green, DC Theater Arts
