Theatre critiques abour her theatre
performances :
“(…)Leonie Waldman Eliad with distinction to
judge Dvosie’s attitudes towards Menachem’s
unconventional family.“ (Ileana Lucaciu about
‘’The Novel of a Businessman’’)
In ‘’Wedding with Divorce’’(…)the Musical Story
Teller has solistic moments, carefully
highlighted ‘’ (Alice Georgescu, Ziarul de
duminică, 2008)
‘’Also,
a special interpretation of Leonie Waldman
Eliad (Mirele Efros), especially in the famous
musical piece “ Yiddishe Mame” (Pat
Donnelly, Montreal Gazette, 24 June 2009)
’The talent and the experience
proves the success of her
performing. Impressive, Leonie Waldman Eliad
confers to Mirale her well known distinction and
elegance, enforcing a rational heroine who
assumes lucidly, from generosity, the drastic
act. A strong, matronly, balanced personality,
reserved in exteriorizations, able to get
beyond humiliations and affronts, to suffer in
silence.’’(Efros Dinasty, by Natalia Stancu, The
Jewish Reality, 2010).
‘’The cast is dominated by the contribution of
this Great Lady of Yiddish Theatre, a lady of
great and constant quality, Leonie Waldman
Eliad. Her role “Mirale Efros” was acquired,
lived in all complexities , nuances and
convincingly shown.But Mrs. Leonie is also a
brilliant Yiddish actress. ‘’A Yiddishe Mame’’
is a jewel of her reportory diadem.‘’ (Bruckmaier,
Familia, 2010.)
‘’The actress Leonie Waldman
Eliad is fragile for a world not always friendly
and yet srong, because she must lead her son to
God. She knows how to tender, but also severe.”
(“The Magician from Lublin’’, by Marina Roman,
2010)
‘’The audience meet in “Wise Men
Of Chelm” with the grace of Leonie Waldman
Eliad, who is
passing with
unexpected
freshness
from dialogue to
lyrical
and
rhythmic
expression’’(‘’Wise Men Of Chelm‘’
by Natalia Stancu, The Jewish Reality 2010)
‘’ The success of the
performance is accomplished by the credible
description of the characters (…) Having a
good presence in expressing her gestures, Leonie
Waldman Eliad defines the agitations of Chana,
wife of David’’ (by Ileana Lucaciu,2012)
‘’Words of praise deserves
Leonie Waldman Eliad, too –very convincing as
the respectable and ‘’stoic’’ Chana (by Natalia
Stancu The Jewish Reality, 2012)
