REVIEWS

​

2015: 

• "Quick brings spot-on comedic timing as well as a hilarious set of gestures and facial expressions to Touchstone. The audience absolutely erupted after a sequence of his toward the end of the play." - Review of As You Like It by Domenica Bongiovanni, Journal and Courier 

2014: 

• "Lizzy’s parents keep the show lively. They are delightfully played by Todd Quick as Mr. Bennet, whose lines reflected Austen’s sarcastic wit...they provide comic relief." - Review of Pride and Prejudice by Kathy Matter, Journal and Courier 

2013:

• The Storyteller is "faithfully enacted here by Todd Quick who threads together a delightful narrative bringing the physical landscape of the play alive". - Review of Peter Pan by Eesha Patkar, Green Room Reviews 

 

• Todd Quick is "an authoritative but twinkly narrator".  - Review of Peter Pan by James MacKillop, Syracuse New Times  

 

• "As acted by a terrific Todd Quick with a twinkle in his eye and a sharp narrative sense, The Storyteller expertly lets us into Barrie's world of enchantment". - Review of Peter Pan by Len Fonte, Syracuse Post Standard 

2012:

• "The players who really know how to speak are...Todd Quick (Albany)". - Review of King Lear by James MacKillop, Syracuse New Times 

 

• "The cast handles the language and the emotions admirably". - Review of King Lear by David Lowenstein, Syracuse Post Standard

 

• "The Red House production of Shakespeare's farce "Twelfth Night" wonderfully captures the play's mix of revelry and poignancy, slapstick and tenderness... the talented cast opens up unexpected treasures in this richest of comedies... Toby's opposite is the steward Malvolio (Todd Quick), who is prim, decorous and power-hungry. You can feel sorry for this Malvolio. When they work the letter trick on him, the upshot is that he says, probably for the first time in his life, "I am happy"... Quick gets complexity into his character without letting it get ponderous or muddled." - Review of Twelfth Night by Neil Novelli, Syracuse Post Standard 

 

•  "[Todd Quick] is the pompous and conceited Malvolio, whose self-regard was created to be smashed...The possessor of a booming, perfectly articulated voice, Todd Quick’s portrayal [of Malvolio] initially reeks with self-importance but somehow achieves pathos in humiliation. A relative newcomer, Quick brings extensive national credits and made his local debut in CNY Shakespeare’s Henry Vx7 last summer." - Review of Twelfth Night by James MacKillop, Syracuse New Times 

 

• "Twelfth Night dazzles at the Red House... I never realized how many “P” words were in Twelfth Night until I saw it Friday, March 30 at the Redhouse Theatre. Malvolio’s stutter with the letter “P” served as a brilliant device highlighting his first swelling of pride to his final downfall. Nothing is more p-p-pathetic than having to stutter the venomous final line: “I’ll be reveng’d on the p-p-p-pack of you!" The rare feat of this cast was their ability to separate the tragic figure of Malvolio from the lovesick comedy literally surrounding him on stage. The mix of Todd Quick’s multifaceted performance and strategic lighting by Tim Brown emphasized Malvolio’s lonely paranoia of being the butt of everyone’s joke." - Review of Twelfth Night by Katrina Tulloch, Green Room Reviews 

2011: 

• "The cast is first rate...[they] shine with a relaxed confidence that immediately puts the audience in the palm of their collective hands." - Review of Henry V by David Lowenstein, Syracuse Post Standard 

2010: 

• "Quick is quirky, ultimately likeable and almost loveable at times. He and his character grow rapidly into "neighbors" you might consider fun for an afternoon barbecue. What happens to Frank is right out of the W.S. Gilbert school of logic but somehow it seems just about right. Quick plays the tiny turns in his psyche with an ease that makes them seem normal and appropriate even when they're clearly nowhere near normal." - Review of Melancholy Play by J. Peter Bergman, Berkshire Bright Focus 

 

• "Todd Quick is warm, funny and strong" - Review of Melancholy Play by Lesley Ann Beck, Berkshire Living Magazine 

 

• "Quick, who is dark, solid and romantic, is obviously Tilly's match as Frank" - Review of Melancholy Play by Gail Burns, Gailsez Reviews 

 

• "Two forceful, pellucid and hugely absorbing productions." -Review of Richard II and Henry V by Celia Wren, The Washington Post  

2009:

• "For Sir Toby Belch-like comic relief, the great Todd Quick is Bottom, an actor who puts the capital "H" in ham." -Review of A Midsummer Night's Dream by Alexander Wallick, The Acorn Press

2008:

• "Todd Quick as the principal servant of the Capulet household easily draws laughs, precisely where they are intended." -Review of Romeo and Juliet by Stuart Duncan, The Princeton Packet Online

 

• "Robust, intense, beautifully acted." - Review of Romeo and Juliet by Anita Gates, The New York Times 

 

• "The very fine supporting cast...deports themselves with finesse." - Review of Amadeus by Simon Staltzman, Curtain Up Internet Theatre Magazine 

 

• "An elegant, superbly cast production." - Review of Amadeus by Naomi Seigel, The New York Times

2006:

• "Todd Quick [is] delightfully jocular as a lord in attendance on Cloten." - Review of Cymbeline by Bob Rendell, Talkin' Broadway
