The reviews. The gal behind 'em.

Who is she?

Once described as a "bombshell character actress," (which... my goodness, feels like the greatest compliment of all time), Lucy Rhoades is a triple threat who loves a bold choice. Originally from Detroit, MI, Lucy calls it "pop" not "soda." She holds a BFA in Musical Theatre from the Hartt School, and is happily based in New York City.  

What's Next?

This Summer Lucy will be originating the role of Heather in nyc's Industry Presentation of the new musical, After Pinocchio.

Million Dollar Quartet at Riverside Theatre

"The fifth singer in the ensemble is essentially a footnote in history, but you wouldn't know it after hearing the vocal chops of Lucy Rhoades as Dyanne, who enters the recording studio on Presley's arm... As she alluringly sings 'Fever,' Rhoades flirts with the musicians, at one point melting onto the bass, and later holds her own while singing with the boys." -Mary Schenkel, Vero News

​Xanadu at The Mac-Haydn 

"The multi-talented lead actress, Kira/Clio, played by Lucy Rhoades, can belt out a song, dance up a storm, roller-skate around a small stage and squawk out an Australian accent with gusto!" -Trixie's List

"Kelley and Rhoades are a dynamic duo onstage, The actors filling these lovable character's shoes, or in Rhoades' case, Roller skates, are a delight. Both possess strong voices, have great sense of comic timing, and make their time onstage, which is almost nonstop, appear effortless. -Nippertown Music Arts & Culture

​Kiss Me, Kate at The Mac-Haydn

"There are many moments to praise and point out. There is Lucy Rhoades as the simmering sexpot Bianca, nailing Porter's classic 'Always True to You in My Fashion.'" -The Daily Gazette

"Rhoades' comic 'Always True to You' was well deserving of its built-in encore." -Nippertown Music Arts & Culture

​Jersey Boys at The Cape Playhouse

"Lest the female element of ‘60s music be ignored, there’s a knockout version of “My Boyfriend’s Back” by the women of the cast, performing as The Angels: Brooke Martino, Lucy Rhoades, and Casey Shuler. The three also show off their dance skills throughout the play, and they act, too, in the roles of various women in The Four Seasons’ lives." -The Cape Cod Times
