WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT LVK?
EARTH TO KAREN
"Stealing the show, however, is Lauren Van Kurin as Jen, Karen’s boss at Subway, as well as a handful of other characters. Van Kurin brightens the stage every time she appears in one of her various roles (which run the gamut), her voice commands attention, and her cute tap-dancing solo is a highlight." - LACEY RAE

"Only to rival Kerr are her female co-stars, Lauren Van Kurin and Rebecca Larsen. Time and again, in any show I’ve seen any of these acting/singing/dancing women perform, it has been a 1000% awesome. And it’s no different here. Van Kurin and Larsen are equally insatiable, with Van Kurin doing some of the most memorable schtick as she is so, by now, known for in the realm of theater and comedy performance. -- Tracey Paleo, Gia On The Move

"The scene stealer, usually in her Subway plastic gloves, is Van Kurin. Her every appearance generates laughs and Sarah M. Kruger’s choreography even gives her a chance to don her tap shoes to good effect." - Rob Stevenshttp://www.haineshisway.com/2019/06/earth-to-karen-reviewed-by-rob-stevens/

Dagney Kerr as Karen & Lauren Van Kurin as Jen
KING OF KONG: A MUSICAL PARODY
"Accomplished Comedians"- The New York Times
"Joyfully Daft"- The New York Times
W.A.S.
"Van Kurin's Brit-inflected diva is like all the Spice Girls rolled into one -- absurdly trashy and garish. The character is faux sexy and faux tough, and Van Kurin is not so much playing a type as completely inhabiting it." - Nina Metz, Chicago Tribune
"Each WAS member is entertainingly over-the-top in attitude and appearance--especially Lauren Van Kurin's Annalis, who strikes dance poses even in casual conversation" -Ryan Hubbard Chicago Reader
REFUGEE GIRLS REVUE
"I was also impressed by Lauren Van Kurin, who portrays a veritable menagerie of incidental adult characters with the manic ferocity of a female Jack Black"-Emily Otto nytheatre.com
TOP GIRLS
"She’s aided by several stand-out cast members, particularly Lauren Van Kurin in the dual roles of the mythical Dull Gret and Marlene’s slow-witted niece"— Kay Daly TimeOut Chicago
