"Victoria Libertore is a darkly humorous performance artist also known as Howling Vic who
dons her blue-wigged Liza persona as curator and host." -
The New Yorker
"A local comic vet." -Time Out New York
"Victoria Libertore, new-vaudevillian, performed a series of sketches -
involving lip-synching to Frank Sinatra and others, a Tickle Me Elmo doll . . .
that ranged from show-stoppingly funny to over-the-edge dark humor . . .worth the
price of admission; the sharp-eyed battle-of-the-sexes vignettes came for no extra charge."
-Miriam Seidel, The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Sheer mind-bending originality . . . hypnotic." -Dfdanse
"On any given night of the week you may find her in some darkened theater commanding
the stage with all the raw power of a goddess, or a queen. Sometimes she's a masochist.
Sometimes she's a crone. At all times she is in absolute control."
-24/Seven Magazine
"A sense of hard-won knowingness and comfort within one's body and within one's
space--that's Libertore's My Journey of Decay.
And her slouch-hatted easing into Citizen Cope's Sideways--
"These feelings won't go away/They've been knockin' me sideways"--knocked me sideways."
-Eva Yaa Asantewaa, infinitebody.blogspot.com/
"My Journey of Decay" brings you on a journey into the depths of human fragility
and strength told through a fully embodied character that can make you laugh
and cry at the same time."
-Karen Bernard, Director of New Dance Alliance
"My Journey of Decay is grotesque, sexy, heart-wrenching and hilarious.
What's more, is it's extremely thoughtful and personal. Everything I expect
from Victoria Libertore."
-JD Carter, Associate Director, terraNOVA Collective
