Soo Garay channels otherworldly energy as the angel. Globe and Mail
But it is Garay’s angel that carries the largest weight on her back as she cracks the walls open and strides forward with power, the actress creates something altogether that is stupendously theatrical and out-of-this-world fragile. The angel’s beauty and resplendent majesty resonate beyond the dramatics. The desperate pain hits deep, much deeper than one might expect. Ross
The performances in Wildfire are a veritable master class. As Caroline, Garay delivers with controlled disquiet what may soon be regarded as one of the great monologues in Canadian drama. It is simply jaw dropping how perfectly Garay balances Caroline’s discovery and pursuit of her desire on such a fine line between humour and horror. Garay’s Claudette breaks your heart; as she tells you the story of her recent loss you can’t help but feel for her and Garay gives you all of that empathy through her performance. –a view from the box.
The show starts with an extended moment of exposition between Poncia and a maid, played by a thoroughly committed and appropriately comical Soo Garay. Intermission. Garay is quite marvellous in capturing the differentials of her various roles. Ludwig

Singularity of Being - Soo Garay is magical as Sally, Roland's wife who sticks by him through it all, despite the stress his suffering puts on her and joyfully helps him through his daily exercises and tops up his glass of whiskey. Elizabeth Saunders gets great laughs as Roland's stern but loving mother and she and Garay play perfectly together as the two women who have looked after Roland through different stages in his life. - Fringe Toronto, Chris Dupuis
The Sheep and The Whale - Soo Garay’s mesmerizing Helene begins tightly wound and ends in calm, fated acceptance. - NOW Magazine, Jon Kaplin
Haunted Masters - Garay threatens to steal the three plays where she has parts…with her magnetic portrayal of Isabelle and her quiveringly intense sexualized energy as the heroine in Border Line. ….. She is the scariest actor, who manages to portray all the truly weirdest individuals without ever tipping into camp. I wouldn’t want to meet her alone on s dark night – that’s a compliment. - Variety/Toronto Star, Richard Ouzounian
My Children! My Africa! - Garay’s finesse with irony was illuminating in her delicate revealing of the naivete behind Isabel’s aggressive open-mindedness –her blithe remarks about getting on so well with the family’s hired help were frosted ever so lightly with condescension- yet the increasing depth of her friendship and conviction were never in doubt. - Winnipeg Free Press, U.G.M.
Romeo & Juliet - ...clear stands out in this cast –especially Garay, who gives an exciting reading to a secondary role, and displays considerable grace and presence. - Globe and Mail, H.J.Kirchhoff
