Kerry Reid, Chicago Tribune
(A) stunning performance throughout.
(The Killer) Nancy Bishop, 3rd Coast Review
Dennis Bisto’s brilliant performance dominates Trap Door’s “The Killer.”
Karen Topham, Chicago On Stage
Bukowska and Bisto deliver inspired performances, as surely Jeff-worthy as anything I have seen this season.
(The White Plague) Bill Esler, Buzz Center Stage
Terrific turns in multiple roles from Dennis Bisto as the choleric King Louis XV and chauvinistic Rousseau
Kerry Reid, Chicago Sun Times
Pay attention to which character Dennis Bisto is playing at any given moment.. Sonneville and Bisto is excellent in multi-faceted roles
Nancy Bishop, Third Coast Reviews
Dennis Bisto is a solid Hippolytus, at once staunch and vulnerable
Hugh Iglarsh, NewCity Stage
Bisto’s performance makes Hippolytus an easy figure to identify with.
Jacob Davis, Around the Town Chicago
