Menopause The Musical

Kelly Furjitz
for Cool Cleveland

Review:
"Earth Mother, aka Jean Zarzour, was a bundle of energy greatly reminiscent of ‘That Girl’ (Marlo Thomas) with her sparkling big brown eyes and dark brown curls bouncing as she danced and sang. Dressed in a warm-up suit, she hilariously lamented: “Puff, my God I’m draggin’” to Puff, the Magic Dragon."

for The Miami Herald

Review:
"Jean Zarzour, as the cheerfully blunt Earth Mother, knows how to sell the amusing songs."


The Sweepers

Christine Howey
for Scene Magazine

Review:
"Jean Zarzour is broad but entirely credible as Bella, bullying her family and manipulating her friends, even as she hides her own shameful secret. Her drunk scene in Act Two is woozy and wobbly, with a slicing edge."

Jean Zarzour is mentioned for consistently outstanding performances in an article called Naming Names by Christine Howey:

"Our area is blessed with numerous talented actors and directors, and you should know their names ... They have a damn good batting average and deserve your attendance when they're involved in a production."


Suds

Linda Eisenstein
for The Plain Dealer

Review:
"With her brassy voice and take-no-prisoners persona, Zarzour gives the production what heft it has."

Christine Howey
for Scene Magazine

Review:
"Jean Zarzour as angel Marge is refreshingly funny"


Homebody/Kabul

Roy Berko
for The Times Newspapers

Review:
"Jean Zarzour gives a special dimension to the Muslim doctors stunned wife."

Roy Berko of The Times Newspapers also honored Dobama Theatre with thirteen awards for its 2002 productions, most specifically for actors’ performances including Jean Zarzour for “Homebody/Kabul”


English Farce adapts well to BW Summer Theater Stage
The Sun News Thursday, July 20, 1998

Review:
"In Baldwin Wallace Summer Theater's regional premiere of Don't Dress for Dinner , guest artist Jean Zarzour is Wickedly funny as Jacqueline, the wife, who has a few secrets of her own to protect and a jealous streak a mile long."
