SEAL SONGS
Two tales of love lost and found by the English seaside.
- Andrea M. Meek – Showbusiness Weekly
"… genuine emotional content … adorable and heartbreaking … It is a joy to watch. … the audience leaves smiling and even a little misty.”
- David Vining – nytheatre.com
“… from the mundane to the fantastic … Katie Atcheson and Richard Kent Green are charming and engaging …"
- Kessa De Santis – electroniclink.com
“ Green is appealingly rustic, with just a dash of goodhearted cluelessness …”
- Matthew Murray, Talkin’Broadway.com
- Richmond Shepard, lively-arts.com
"Richard Kent Green is a thoughtful actor who approaches his characters with a gentle hand. He makes careful work of his accent in the first play and inhabits Alan with a touch of melancholy that makes you lonely when he makes his final exit."

"...with brutal honesty and sharp wit…LOL examines the romantic life of Danny, an average Joe played by
Richard Kent Green...there is one reason to see this play...acting, acting, acting...trust me, it is just that good... if the promise of great acting is not enough to convince you to see LOL...there is always the sex."
- Sarah Bolson, OffOffOnline.com
"...played to perfection by Richard Kent Green...
the scenes where Danny first goes online are both hilarious and bittersweet, staged with
just the right balance of anarchy and desperation by director Jerry Less...LOL morphs from a jolly romantic comedy to a supernatural/psychological
thriller...LOL is an intriguing exploration of the newest landscape of relationships and sex...a good deal of fun...the entire cast is terrific...."

A NEW ROCK OPERA

"grungy aural accompaniment and clever sense of camp propel the sordid tale of revenge and empowerment until it wraps up with sitcomlike speed...FOUR STARS!"
- TimeOut Magazine

JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
LiveStage Performance
at PCII
"witty revival...easy on the ears... excellent six-piece rock band...strong choral work from the ensemble...the production does indeed give some idea of what Jesus would do: he would kick back and hum along."

KING HENRY IV
Parts 1 & 2
Workshop Theater Company
Jewel Box Theater
"Defining a King - Director Jerry Less...is to be commended on his adaptation...a seamless 2-hour production...pure storytelling...a dynamic interpretation that is both easy to understand and enjoyable to watch. It is the acting, however, that proves to be the brightest jewel in Henry's crown...invigorating and, at times, hysterically funny. Consider this a must-see."

"Maria Gabriele and Richard Kent Green demonstrate excellent comic timing with their nonsensical banter."

"William C. Kovacsik's new play, 'The Barksdale Confession'...is a fine, well-constructed play, skillfully directed by Richard Kent Green. The three member cast...is excellent." - Gene Kilik, Town & Village
"...a smartly acted drama...cleverly written...Kovacsik and director Richard Kent Green ride the play's earnestness...to the edge of comic satire...tricky for the actors, too...but they succeed."
- Mark Dundas Wood, BACKSTAGE
