Pirate Jenny in The Threepenny Opera
(nominated for Carbonell Award, Best Actress in a Musical)
The major roles were beautifully sung with the exception of Adria Firestone, whose role was magnificently sung. The theater could have caught fire during one of Ms. Firestone's numbers and no one would have moved.

Firestone lights up the stage when she makes an appearance, smoldering with equal parts of sexuality and menace.

Aldonza in The Man of La Mancha
(Won Carbonell award for Best Actress in a Musical)
She is a truly rare performer, a singer who acts and an actress who moves. Her voice treads the treacherous path between opera and musical comedy triumphantly. Her glorious voice never overpowers the score and every lyric can be heard. This is a no tricks, no ego and very classy performance. The Irvine World News, USA
Prince Orlovsky in Die Fledermaus
Prince Orlovsky, meanwhile, was absolutely wonderful. This role, written for mezzo soprano is usually unsuccessful. Taken by Adria Firestone it was marvelous. Ms. Firestone always sounds grand with her rich, expressive voice, but more than that, her Prince is eccentric, worldly wise, very Russian and very funny. Further, she moved with truly masculine movements. - Palm Beach Daily News
Julie in Showboat
Much of the GCO production's appeal shows up in the second act. Adria Firestone as Julie delivers a lovely restrained vocal treatment of the torch song Bill and finally sets the show's dramatic tone and a subtle mimed farewell to her protégé.
