Praise for Tichenor as Suze in Fairview
“As Suze, perhaps the most well-meaning of the interlopers, Daisy Tichenor is as eloquent with her silence as she had previously been explaining what the concept of family means to her.” Broadway World
Praise for Tichenor as Audrey and Le Beau in As You Like It
“Touchstone (David Melville) and oddball goatherd Audrey (Daisy Tichenor) steal the show with their passionate love and freaky turn-ons (exactly what Shakespeare would have wanted!)” Larchmont Buzz
“Among the many highlights are Jacqueline Misaye nailing the lovelorn cross-dressing Rosalind… and especially Daisy Tichenor making a banquet out of the adorable simple goatherd, Audrey.” Broadway World
“Le Beau, by the way, is particularly funny as she gets excited when speaking of broken ribs. In the text, the character is male, but changing the gender adds more humor to that speech and others. And besides, Daisy Tichenor is excellent in the role.” Mostly Shakespeare
