"...Rando has created wonderful moments for his actors. Gould and Prewitt carry the work on their shoulders. They are not as richly human as older actors might be, but their enthusiasm and agility makes their performances enjoyable. One thing Rando has not done is keep the work buoyant as it pushes toward its 150-minute conclusion. But then “Hamlet” has never been a quick walk in the park."

"...While the Acting Company's "Hamlet" is an especially fine one for those either new to the play or absent from it for some time, "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern" is the production that's more likely to be creeping into your conversation the next day, as you stumble upon "ah ha" moments when some aspect of the absurdity becomes clear or you start to consider an angle on interpretation you hadn't yet explored. So Stoppard is going head-to-head with the Bard this week, and might actually give your mind a better workout."

"...Both Gould and Prewitt do a superb job of finding the strengths and weaknesses of their characters. They have taken two Elizabethan characters and created a little bromance—if bromances included both characters dying at the end. Both their line delivery and their physical comedy is spot on. They truly understand these characters and what makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern work."
