Best Ensemble (Attempts on Her Life, TUTA Theatre)
Review: In ‘The Heart Sellers’ at Northlight, newcomers compare notes on their adopted homeland
"Park, a Korean-born actor who first came to Chicago to study, is emerging as a significant comic talent in the city... She’s an accomplished physical comedian in the sketch-comedy tradition of such, but she’s also old-school in the variety of reactions she can impart, often in a charmingly goofy way, and that speaks to the huge amounts of attention she pays to what her costar is saying here. Park could well make a national impact."By Chris Jones
Review: ‘Attempts on Her Life’ is a confounding non-play, with candy — welcome back, TUTA
"... the fine cast of Bide Akande, Clifton Frei, Amy Gorelow, Mikayla De Guzman, Felix Mayes and Seoyoung Park throw themselves into this insane stuff on a scorching Sunday afternoon with the “L” train rattling by, jumping around from humor to horror and halfway back again."By Chris Jones
Review: TUTA Theatre’s The Long Christmas Dinner Brings Refreshing Sadness to a Saccharine Season
"But the finest commentary arrives through Leonora’s (Seoyoung Park) arc. Park blows it out of her surname in a devastating scene where she holds her deceased infant child. “Oh, I did love it so,” she weeps, breaking the heart of the audience, who may have been surprised to find themselves crying so soon into a very short show."

Review: TUTA Theatre Stages an Experimental and Mystifying Play, Attempts on Her Life, With Style and Flamboyance
"With expert direction by co-artistic director Aileen Wen McGroddy, the six performers are energetic and creative portrayers of the playwright’s vignettes, songs, debates, videos, slide shows and voice-mail conversations, and a final scene describing a violent act. The performers are not stationary; their movement is choreographed throughout the play."By Nancy S Bishop
