Falstaff - Boston Opera Collaborative
"Brooke Larimer as Mistress Quickly was the quintessential contralto-soubrette, Italian-American sexpot, with some of the most convincing physical realization of character in the whole production."
--Janine Wanée, The Boston Musical Intelligencer (classical-scene.com), July 17, 2011
"Impressive singing actors fill the major roles...Mezzo-soprano Brooke Larimer, Mistress Quickly in toreador pants, boa, and hoop earrings, proves she can sing and chew gum at the same time."
--Lloyd Schwartz, The Boston Phoenix, July 20, 2011

"Mezzo-soprano Kristina Riegle sang a regal knight betrothed to alto Brooke Larimer's Bradamante disguised as a man. All were excellent. Among the many fine arias, I would single out...Bradamante's revenge aria [Vorrei vendicarmi]..."
