"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."

"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."

"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

look forward to working with her again, and again."

"Louise Flory as Heather has more of a spark to [her] acting."

"The cast does a good job in creating touching and precise characterizations, and yes, the play does fly in this production. It will make you think, it will make you wonder, it will - hopefully - make you ask yourself some hard questions and maybe even find some answers."

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

"We
had the immense pleasure of directing Louise in our
short film, 'Elli and the Astronaut,' in August
2008. 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."

“Casting
Louise Flory was one of the best decisions I could
have made while shooting 'Issues.' Her charm and
sense of humor kept the set light and happy while
her dedication and thoroughness insured the best
possible performances. She is always looking for
ways to take risks and add more life to the
character, from script breakdowns to choice in
wardrobe and props. I can only wonder what the
character of Mack would have been like without
Louise's tireless approach to character analysis.
Full of life and a love of the craft, Louise is a
performer to be reckoned with, and has the makings
of a great director to boot. She is all-class-
classic look and classy attitude. When time is
running out and the production is on the line,
Louise is the kind of actress you want in front of
the camera and on your set.”

"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 suggest
constructive feedback to the film and its script
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!"

"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."
Paul Weissman, playwright Sunset Motel: family values

Flory is the kind of person who not only brings
professionalism to whatever she does, but the
great ability to think on the fly and
jump in with new ideas wherever they are
needed."
