"The central performances are well supported by some technically accomplished and well acted contributions. Lauren Easton is an exceptional Brangäne, sweeter of voice but feistier of temperament than usual."

Grimeborn August 2025
"Lauren Easton sang a very warm and engaging Brangäne, attentive to all Isolde's needs, but especially spirited when she acted as a windbreak during Isolde's storm of conflicted energy in Act 1."

"Lauren Easton delights as Isolde's common-sensible but devious maid/companion, Brangäne "

A YOUNG(ISH) PERSPECTIVE
Tristan & Isolde
Grimeborn August 2025
"Demonstrating a lively and natural versatility, drenched in humour and pathos as the music grows in maturity alongside her story, Easton is magnetic on stage as a big-hearted and casually precise performer. She doesn’t lose a single punchline or heart-tug in her delivery, and the tight direction between the singer and her pianist Lana drives home the professionalism and synchronicity of the pair and is a treat to witness."

Making This Up As I Go
Brighton Fringe July 2024
"The wonderful duet Qui Tollis was ravishingly given by Ruth Kerr and mezzo Lauren Easton – I was spellbound by the colours on display within her singing."
SUSSEX WORLD
Rossini Petite Messe Solennelle
Burgess Hill January 2023
"The mellow voice of Australian mezzo-soprano Lauren Easton is an ideal vehicle for conveying the ups and downs of emotion, restrained at times and unrestrained at other times, culminating in a visceral cry of desperation before the subdued conclusion."

"There were excellent comprimarios... especially, Lauren Easton (a busty busybody of a Flora, up there with the best I've seen)."
HUGH CANNING
"...Lauren Easton was a sparky Flora in both party scenes."
MARK PULLINGER
"...Eddie Wade's volatile silver fox baron and Lauren Easton's chippy, feisty Flora make their mark..."

GFO & GOT 2014
"Humperdinck gives the Sandman and Dew Fairy chances in this opera that it is virtually impossible to fail at and the limpid voices of Lauren Easton (in white) and Angharad Morgan (in sickly green) made the best of their opportunities; theirs was some of the best singing of the evening." JIM PRITCHARD
"...in the brief role of the Sandman, but then both she and Angharad Morgan as the Dew Fairy sang delectably." CURTIS ROGERS
"Chorus soloist Lauren Easton is a memorable white-faced Sandman and Angharad Morgan a goofy green Dew Fairy. The singing is uniformly excellent." SIMON THOMAS

"Easton makes the role enchanting, even sensual, as she moves carefully along caressing the wooden back of the sofa while relating the unhappy story of the Portuguese husband." AUSTRALIAN TIMES UK
"...the singing sofa – whimsically named Amarela – delivered in a smoky mezzo and with slinky, cabaret-like movements by Lauren Easton..."

"...The judges agreed that Lauren has a rich, warm, mezzo voice which is beautifully even throughout the entire range and has great expressive potential.”
