“We didn’t have to suffer through lame wisecracks from the presenters or cutesy sketches from the host, Ariana Debose, who opened her segment of the show with a wordless dance number (brilliantly choreographed by Karla Puno Garcia) that showed off the gorgeous lobby of the United Palace, the uptown venue where the Tonys were held this year.” - Zachary Stewart, Theatermania
76th Annual Tony Awards Opening Number
“There are outbreaks of cheery choreography (by Sergio Trujillo and Karla Puno Garcia) that similarly feel like cheery balloons at a somber funeral.” - Tim Teeman, Daily Beast
“Guettel gives them bright, fast music, frenetic and danceable — and when they do a bit of soft-shoe in salt spilled on the floor, there’s a playful heedlessness to their sandpaper percussion.” - Laura Collins-Hughes, New York Times
Days of Wine and Roses (Atlantic Theater)
“Each number is accompanied by Phillip Rosenberg's sumptuous lights and Karla Puno Garcia's electric choreography, the latter of which is so striking that it threatens to run off with the entire show.” - Luke Evans, Broadwayworld
Noir (Alley Theater)
“It's a very musical non-musical (an odd quasi-genre that I happen to love), packed to the brim with showtunes and ballads and Karla Puno Garcia's stunning choreography.” - Colin-Fleming Stumpf, Broadwayworld
Somewhere (Geva Theatre)
