Humble Boy
"Stephanie Clayman makes the mother, Flora, a fascinating monster: stunningly self-absorbed, yet with a hidden knack for insight that emerges, unexpectedly but believably, late in the game."
   - Boston Globe
A Shayna Maidel
"The undeniable standout is Clayman as Lusia. There is never a false note in her Yiddish, her broken English, or her growth from reticent vulnerability to attractive decisiveness. Clayman’s performance is stunningly natural, the way she artfully but untheatrically captures Lusia’s warmth and strength of character."

A Taste of Honey
"Clayman has what actors call the ability to be "private in public"; she can bare herself without exhibiting herself. This performance – gentle, uncluttered, ironic – is riveting."
- Boston Phoenix
The Taming of the Shrew
"As the Shrew of the title, Stephanie Clayman gives a wonderfully powerful performance, impudent and obnoxious at one moment and totally soft and sympathetic the next. It’s a great tribute to her (and the director) that her capitulation is perfectly understandable and even acceptable to us."
  - Boston Globe
The Lady With All the Answers
Awake and Sing
"As Hennie, Stephanie Clayman reveals a repressed, rebellious spirit so skillfully that we’re cheering her on as she chucks her baby and insufferably decent husband for a life of high rolling with petty gambler Moe."
- Boston Phoenix
We Won’t Pay!
"Thanks to Clayman, Antonia’s antics have a Lucille Ball sheen of crazy energy about them ."
- Boston Herald
Communicating Doors
"Clayman carries her character through a range of temperaments with guileless, organic ease. Dignified scorn, calm rationality and some serious inanity are all borne as evidence of the actress’s fluency."
  – South End News
City Sugar
"Stephanie Clayman's acting as Nicola Davies is varied, subtly calibrated, and poignant without vulgarly yanking at the heartstrings."
