 Acclaim For down Range:

                                                Down Range

        "A particular strength of Down Range is its exploration of various kinds of love at different stages of life, between lovers and between friends, between rivals, and between the living and the dead…Here at last, in a rather slow-starting off-Broadway season, is a well written, beautifully acted play about something that matters to us all."

                                                                                            by Yvonne Korshak

        "It's a moving portrayal of what happens to returning soldiers, and how their loved ones are also affected…Bob Celli has terrific chemistry with his buddy played by the equally talented Thaddeus Daniels. These two fine actors really must work together again, because it's a delight to see them play against each other."

                                                                                              by Valerie Smaldone

        "With a fantastic set designed by Tim McMath, innovative projection design by Alex Koch and subtly effective sound design Daniel Kluger this production of Down Range is stirring, evocative and tells a satisfyingly complete story."

        "Down Range is poignant and relevant as well as provocative and effective. This is a play about the realities of military life and about the human effects of war. The final scene is both shocking and touching and it leaves an impression that will not soon be forgotten. This is important theater; it carries reminders about what war is like for those who truly live it everyday. It is a story that deserves to be heard."

        “I enjoyed and admired Going Home…the remarkable record that Going Home has already achieved renders redundant any words I might add. Festivals, gold awards, etc., are eloquent testimonies to your talent.”

                                             CIRCLE
                             WINNER OF THE 2001 OOBR AWARD

        “The actors love their roles and let you feel it. To chose just a few: Bob Celli as a college sophomore seducing a stripper at a birthday party is so coarse and so sensuous that he is detestable and admirable all at once…No wonder there is popular demand. This little show is quick and funny, and requires no assembly by the audience.”

                                         D.J.R. Bruckner The New York Times

        "Every actor in Circle plays two or three roles, and there’s not a weak link in this daisy chain of couplings…BOB CELLI and THADDEUS DANIELS are versatile and appealing."

                                                        Adrienne Onofri / Curtain Up


        “Circle…possibly the best production currently on the Off-Off-Broadway boards”

        “…The brilliant ensemble play with their 10 characters with a jazzy,         freewheeling inventiveness seldom encountered in theater on any             level.”

        "…the  brilliant ensemble (BOB CELLI, THADDEUS DANIELS, FELICIA SCARANGELLO, and JUDY CHARLES) play with their 10 characters with a jazzy, freewheeling inventiveness seldom encountered in theater on any level.”
 
                             Doug De Vita  /  OFF-OFF-Broadway Review

        “…all this is tackled by an amazing quartet of actors, BOB CELLI, THADDEUS DANIELS, FELICIA SCARANGELLO, AND JUDY CHARLES, whose impressive versatility creates vignettes similar to a master class of acting…”

        “The ensemble of actors are excellent…”

                                       Artemis Furie / Show Business Weekly


        “…Bawdy, hilarious and thoughtful…deserves a large and attentive audience”

        “…White hot, screamingly funny…”

        “The very best scene is one between "cybervirgin," Bonnie… played by…Scarangello and Celli's unhappily married man, who have a white hot, screamingly funny encounter in cyberspace while they scarf candy and Oreo cookies; this made the viewer wonder, for a moment, whether these two folks were underage. They weren't, but they might as well have been in their astonished, goofy, teenaged enthusiasm…”
