NYC-trained and tested; Texas-born and raised. Proud daughter of immigrant parents. Cheerfully married to Spencer Plachy, my partner off AND (occasionally) on the stage. *See our BroadwayWorld interview for our latest show together
Loves all things Harry Potter and all kinds of food...except spicy!! My happy place is always near the ocean.

Welcome.

"The immense cast is superb [...] but attention must be paid to Laura Kaldis (Eva)."
-D.L. Groover for Houston Press
"Laura Kaldis' skilled and more emotional portrayal of [Ludwig's] wife...
...[Kaldis' Eva] is the soul."
-Brett Cullum for BroadwayWorld
"This septet [...] sings out magnificently. Flower Drum Song gives us a most tender rendition of 'Love Look Away' from Kaldis. [...] Cinderella begets comedy [...] in 'When You're Driving Through the Moonlight.' [...] Rodgers and Hammerstein never had it so good."
-D.L. Groover for Houston Press
"The draw here is all about the cast. Each performer marvels in their own way [...] Laura Kaldis may be in charge but we see her crumbling on the inside."
-Jessica Goldman for Houston Press
"...the kind and gracious Elizabeth Darcy (Laura Kaldis)..."
-Chris Gray for Houston Chronicle
"...the other sisters are firecrackers. Elizabeth (Laura Kaldis) is sensible, modern, crafty, a lady..."
-D.L. Groover for Houston Press
What's the tea?...
Just Brewed: "Lightning in a bottle." That's how I would describe what it was to do the late Tom Stoppard's final and epic play, 'Leopoldstadt." Amazing colleagues, sold out extended run, incredible audience and critical responses, and a new extended family I'll never forget. Grateful.
Still Steeping: Honored to sing at Main Street Theater's '50th Anniversary Celebration' this May. She's showing off her high B natural, folks. Get ready!
Tea With Sugar:
"Always the diplomat, Laura Kaldis, as Elizabeth Bennet is all poise and soothing sister [...] charming and attractive..."
-Houston Press about 'Georgiana and Kitty: Christmas at Pemberley
"Laura Kaldis is his match as Katherina in this production. They are both extremely adept at doing physical comedy. [...] Watching them verbally spar is a joy, and watching them add in physical comedy is a revelation. These are some of the best Shakespeare performances I have seen, and they really are wonderful anchors for this show."
-BroadwayWorld about 'The Taming of the Shrew'
