SELECT REVIEWS
"a simply tremendous success... Robinson combines effortless charm and genuine intensity as he glides through his scenes."
- ALLEN ADAMS, THE MAINE EDGE
"...the excellent Robinson (the lead in Mad Horse's recent Six Degrees of Separation), whose level gaze and restrained but smoldering authority contrast beautifully with Carlsen's more feminine flourishes."
​- MEGAN GRUMBLING, THE PORTLAND PHOENIX
​
"...exquisitely haunting acting by three of Portland's most formidable young male actors — Ian Carlsen, Bari Robinson, and Michael Dix Thomas "
- MEGAN GRUMBLING, THE PORTLAND PHOENIX
​
"...Robinson’s Sebastian is buoyed by cocky self-assurance."
- JEREMY GOODWIN, THE BOSTON GLOBE (Twelfth Night)
​
"Bari Robinson is an engagingly whiny Roderigo.
-JEFFREY GANTZ, THE BOSTON GLOBE (Othello)
​
"Matt Hurley, Bari Robinson and Joshua McCarey as Brutus’ co-conspirators give performances as fine and layered as [Brutus] and [Antony] do."
-JUDY HARRISON, BANGOR DAILY NEWS (Julius Caesar)
​
"Bari Robinson, as Lincoln, and J.H. Smith III, as Booth, make volatile electricity of the brothers' warmth and their war... conjure a fraught and believably ambivalent fraternal rapport, and the difference in energy and outlook between their brothers is superbly dynamic. ... Robinson's hands and voice are utterly bewitching. "
