HANNAH RUWE
As Diana in Casey & Diana - American Players Theatre
“Hannah Ruwe nails Diana’s demure essence, the lowered head and graceful physicality, but wisely avoids imitation, instead capturing Diana's unmistakable warmth and ability to make every person feel worthy of her complete attention.”
Katie Reiser, Isthmus
“The third storyline involves Diana herself, played with a ballerina’s posture and a whisper of a smile by Hannah Ruwe.”
Lindsay Christians, The Cap Times
“Ruwe completely convinces us as Diana with her excellent posture, thoughtful demeanor and seemingly genuine concern for these patients.”

As Elsa in Ibsen in Chicago - Seattle Repertory Theatre
“Ruwe makes for the perfect foil to Potter and an even better love interest to McLinden as the chemistry between the three of them is palpable.”
Jay Irwin, Broadway World
“When Potter, as Helga, dishes it out, feisty Ruwe as Elsa, gives it right back.”
Starla Smith, Queen Anne News
"Elsa (Hannah Ruwe) is the young, preternaturally gifted actress who’s seemingly been engineered to throw Helga into fits of jealousy. (She does.)"

As Emma in Grand Concourse - Seattle Public Theatre
“And later, in Ruwe’s persuasively mercurial portrayal, this sincere yet careless kid delivers a more jolting betrayal that is much harder to excuse.”
Misha Berson, Seattle Times
“The two women have the meatiest roles and Hannah Ruwe is very good as the mysteriously layered student with a lot of secrets to reveal…”
Seattle Gay Scene
“Ruwe, who blew me away in a very small and quiet role in the aforementioned "On Clover Road", tackles the role of Emma with tons of heart and an air of longing making her sympathetic even in the face of some questionable actions.”
Jay Irwin, Broadway World
