BroadwayWorld: "Review: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at TheatreWorks Silicon Valley Takes a New Look at the Campy Cautionary Musical Tale"
"The two leads were both quite strong. Sumi Yu as Audrey evinced a blithely comic sensibility as a disguise for the more troubling aspects of her existence, sang quite well, and wore Audrey's intentionally taste-challenged costumes with aplomb, which is not an easy thing to pull off ."
"TheatreWorks stages holiday 'Horrors'"
"Also at the top of this list is the elegant Sumi Yu as Audrey. Her solo "Somewhere That's Green" is sung simply and with wholehearted sincerity."
"Silicon Valley Theatreworks' 'Little Shop of Horrors' is a kick in the plants"
"...Audrey, played by Sumi Yu, who effectively conveys a growing confidence as the show progresses...
...Yu, whose comic sweetness feels entirely natural..."
"Theatreworks' "Little Shop of Horrors" is a delightful bit of man-eating flora fun"
"Sumi Yu as Audrey the really dumb blond with a big heart, plays the part flawlessly...She delivers her lines and songs with such believability and poignancy..."
"Review: Nothing Second-Hand In 'Little Shop of Horrors' Revival At Theatreworks"
"He is well matched with Sumi Yu as Audrey, the decision-challenged object of his affections, who engagingly juggles her character's desperate lack of self-esteem with bursts of sunny shrug-inspiring if improbable optimism."

"The Rep Opens The Season With Technically Dazzling, Enigmatic 'House of Joy'"
"The biggest standout, to my mind, is Yu as Hamida, who starts out as something of a comic “best friend” character but goes on a convincing emotional journey through the course of the show, and her friendship with Pandya’s Roshni is thoroughly believable."
