Off-Broadway she originated the roles of Jane in Linda Faigao-Hall's Dying in Boulder at La Mama and Aviva in Staci Swedeen's The Goldman Project. John Simon/New York Magazine singled out her performance in Kenneth Branagh’s Public Enemy at the Irish Arts Center as "outstanding."Quigley’s range of roles in regional theaters include Lady Bird Johnson in Robert Schenkkan’s All the Way, Agnes in Tracy Letts’ Bug, the title role in Martin McDonagh's The Beauty Queen of Leenane, and Elizabeth Proctor in Arthur Miller's The Crucible.

Bernadette has recorded a number of audiobooks, including Helen Fielding's Cause Celeb. Publishers Weekly wrote: "Quigley scrupulously brings Fielding's vapid, iconic characters to life with her uncanny ability to switch between accents and mood at the drop of a hat, achieving a subtler style of comedy than listeners may expect."
