"There is an inherent charm and endearing quality to O'Hare, even in the most outlandish moments."
-Peter Danelski, DC Metro Theater Arts

THE BRIDE'S A C*&%
On the Rocks


"Campbell O'Hare—one of Philadelphia's most exciting young actors—plays Nora, a frighteningly intense bridezilla...this fascinatingly complex character is the heart of the play."
-Mark Cofta, Broad Street Review

"As the titular bride, Campbell O’Hare anchors the cast with a performance by turns caustically funny and ultimately shattering. She’s easily the best actor in her peer group currently working in Philadelphia, something you already know if you saw Mauritius, and she inhabits her brittle and broken character with breathtaking fearlessness."
-Cameron Kelsall, Phindie

"Campbell O’Hare is both deeply tormented and viciously tormenting as the virgin bridezilla."
-Deb Miller, DC Metro Theater Arts

MAURITIUS
Act II Playhouse

"The young UArts grad O'Hare triumphs in her role, delivering a performance as rare and exquisite as the stamp she pilfers. At once vulnerable and tough, off-putting and endearing, she sparkles in this part."
-Jim Rutter, Philadelphia Inquirer


"Campbell O’Hare commands the role of Jackie, balancing the haunting wounds of familial damage with a righteous anger for anyone even attempting to take advantage of her."
-Megan Diehl, 
DC Metro Theater Arts

"O’Hare stole the show hands down. She was tremendous. I felt her heartache, her anger, her pain, and her hope. O’Hare WAS her character—real and believable—she had me rooting for her throughout the show."
-Lauren Hartranft, Phindie

DANCE NATION
​The Wilma Theater


"The ensemble is copacetic and, to a person, superb. Among the dancers, the standouts include...Campbell O’Hare, as a driven girl who trades friendships for achievements. O’Hare also choreographs, and she skillfully creates dances that convey each girl’s differing level of ability."
-Cameron Kelsall, Reclining Standards


"As alpha dancer Amina, O'Hare expertly balances ambition and self-doubt. O'Hare is also responsible for the production's creative choreography."
-Rebecca Rendell, Talkin' Broadway


"Campbell O’Hare plays Amina, the group's best dancer, but she also doubles as choreographer, a job she does very well."
-Dennis Bloh, Philly Life & Culture

HEROES OF THE
FOURTH TURNING

The Wilma Theater

"...the revelation was Campbell O’Hare as Emily. Even among this consistently excellent cast, she is a standout. All the other characters are defined in some way by what they do, but Emily is defined by what she is: in pain. Kind, empathetic, and a good listener, Emily is the glue of the group. While others rant or explode in fury, Emily is the calm center—until she isn’t.
​The monologue following is a performer ripping her entrails out and hurling them on the ground. It is a rare privilege to witness such artistic commitment."

-Brad Rothbart, Broad Street Review
ABOUT THE HEROES

TRAVESTIES
Lantern Theater Company


"The real treat of the play was Campbell O’Hare as Cecily. While she is the foil for Henry, she is much more. She is sharp-witted, edgy, funny, and also the target of Henry’s affections, but she has passions of her own. She is a delight to watch as her relationship with Henry is told again and again and again."
​-Frank Burd, Burd Reviews

TWELFTH NIGHT
The Wilma Theater

"Truly a force to be reckoned with, Campbell O'Hare is a fierce and unforgiving Maria. Together, O'Hare and Conallen needle and chide each other with such compelling animosity that Maria's revenge seems like a logical outcome."
-Rebecca Rendell, Talkin' Broadway

"Campbell O’Hare balances impudence and heart as the pert and scheming Maria."
-Alaina Johns, Broad Street Review

TARTUFFE
Lantern Theater Company


"And as Elmire, O’Hare, fending off Tartuffe’s increasingly unwelcome advances, shines in a role that can feel uncomfortable or even cringey in the hands of a less capable performer."
-Jillian Ashley Blair Ivey, Broad Street Review

​RAPTURE, BLISTER, BURN
The Wilma Theater


"...charmingly played by Campbell O'Hare, in the show's best performance."
-David Anthony Fox, Philadelphia Citypaper
"Campbell O'Hare, in a gleaming, razor-edged portrayal, [is] the play's mouthpiece for the next generation of adults, and in a sly way, its truth-teller."
-Howard Shapiro, Newsworks





"Campbell O'Hare as Avery, who provides a precocious younger generation's perspective on the issues, is funny and on-point."
-Julius Ferraro, 
Phindie
“The acting is stellar...Campbell O’Hare flourishes as a high schooler discovering her sexuality.”
-Smalley Bogg, Phindie (Wolfcrush, On the Rocks)


"The production is brought to life by seriously committed comic performances from the nine-member cast, most notably Campbell O’Hare as the titular Birdie...”
-Christopher Munden, Phindie (Birdie’s Pit Stop, On the Rocks)


“There is an exquisite moment when Urzula (Campbell O'Hare) makes her way over a narrow aisle overlooking the stage without saying a word. In the half a minute it takes O'Hare to cross, her face and body speak volumes about the misery of the last six months and her elation at moving on.”
-Rebecca Rendell, Talkin’ Broadway (Describe the Night, The Wilma Theater)

​“...this futuristic desolation [is rendered] with terror and bleak despair, punctuated only in moments of quiet optimism and innocence by Campbell O'Hare (as the survivor Maria).”
-Jim Rutter, The Philadelphia Inquirer (Mr. Burns, The Wilma Theater)
