“Sharon Fogarty plays Lillian as a cross between Mama Rose and Amanda Wingfield; she has a terrific scene in Act Two in which, wearing Frances's tiara and pretending to be Frances, answering a fan letter, she successfully navigates over the deep end and shows us how deeply disturbed this woman—the most important influence on Frances—actually is.” – NYTheatre.com on ST. FRANCES OF HOLLYWOOD. 

“Fogarty is one of downtown theatre’s most inventive and, I fear, underappreciated geniuses.” NYTheatre.com on WHERE SLEEPING GODS LIE, March 2005.

“[Sophie] Lemberg, a tightly wound ball of eccentricity and disillusionment, is played brilliantly by Sharon Fogarty. She delivers every line with idiosyncratic perfection. Her eyes, as magnetic as they are disarming, give a superb performance of their own. ” -Sarah Bolson, OffOffOnline.com on WHITE LIARS, July 2004. 

“They're funny, especially as delivered by Sharon Fogarty, who is winningly pixilated and shrewd as the faux Baroness.” – On WHITE LIARS, Martin Denton, NYTheatre.com, July 2004.

“Sharon Fogarty played the guitar, and provided excellent - oh-so-sexy - voiceovers for the computer that ran the lab.” – Charles Battersby, OOBR, on THE OVERDEVELOPMENT OF SCOTT, August 2003.

“Fogarty is delicious as the [Marilyn] Monroe character…” – NYTheatre.com on PUTNAM, May 2003.

“Fogarty is the best thing about the play; a powerful, haunting, darkly funny, a ritualized birthing, a mythic forcing of the raw life force of Mary into a mold she did not choose.” – Roy Sorrels, Culture Vulture on BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN ~ an experiment in intimacy, September 2001. 

“The star of the evening was Sharon Fogarty… the audience roared in laughter. Ms. Fogarty is a find! I’m going to go out of my way to catch more of this extremely talented young woman. You should too!” – Applause, Applause on FUNNY SHEESH Musical Improv Theatre, 2000.

“Fogarty herself is a supreme actress, from the small movements of her mouth to the friendly concern and loss registered on her face when she can no longer enter the “door of depression.” – Bonnie Butkas, Buffalo News on BACH REMEDIES, 1996.

“A great performer…” (Othello/Moortown) “Beneath that innocent surface 
lurked an antic sense of humor and a very peculiar way of looking at the world.” (Making Light) Jennifer Dunning, NY TIMES.
