| “A brilliant production….Thomas McElroy captures this despotic character in all his varied moods...harsh and scornful...cold and indifferent...charmed and beguiled...the entire ensemble is excellent...no dull moments...well done!” - Beverly Friend “Highly recommended...16 searingly good actors….Marcus Hubbard played by the expertly controlled and controlling Thomas McElroy...air-tight fire and ice staging is flawless….every actor excels.” -Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times |
| “Captivating….Thomas Edson McElroy & Neal Grofman heighten the play’s intensity... powerful. Makes Miller’s examination of relationships, race, and responsibility expansive.” –Jen Goddu, Chicago Reader |
| “A most involving and lucid production... Strong performances.” -Scott C. Morgan, Windy City Times.“ |
| “(Has) that most elusive theatrical property, "radiant stage energy,"….a play that feels fresh, immediate and, at moments, even comic…. not just vivid, compelling and filled with complex characters, but eerily prophetic …a large and expertly orchestrated cast of first-rate actors….the slick, manipulative mayor, Peter Stockman (Thomas Edson McElroy).” -Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times |
| “A slew of potent TimeLine performances. Paul Noble plays Stockman with invincible but never showy integrity, while Thomas Edson McElroy oozes unctuousness as his slippery politician brother.” -Lawrence Bommer, Chicago Free Press “Outstanding…an intensely powerful show…believable and likable characters, … an ensemble show full of rich performances…Janet Ulrich Brooks as the assertive Widow and Thomas Edson McElroy as the mayor command the stage….This is theatre at its zenith.” -Tom Williams, Chicagocritic.com |
| “Flawlessly fast-paced production….The ensemble effectively played multiple characters, especially Thomas Edson McElroy as Dr. Condon and five trial witnesses... (he) instantly characterized each.” -Tom Williams, Chicago Arts and Entertainment |
| “A highly polished revival….Carefully tuned staging… skillfully reveals the complex, airtight structure of Logans work. A slew of less-than- reliable witnesses, all played deftly by Thomas Edson McElroy.” -Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times |
| “Thomas Edson McElroy is particularly effective (and funny) as a series of expert witnesses.” -Nina Metz, Newcity Chicago “Thomas Edson McElroy displays stunning versatility in a variety of roles.” - Tom Williams, Chicagocritic.com |
| “Thomas Edson McElroy embodies the banality of evil, including the infuriating ability to turn his moral failing into grounds for sympathy.” -Kelly Kleiman, Chicago Reader |
| “A solid four member ensemble, particularly Thomas Edson McElroy’s complex performance.” - Nina Metz, Newcity Chicago “Absorbing….impressive….a production that never makes a wrong step...four strong off loop veterans….negotiate Neveu’s deceptively simple script with rare grace and ease...solid work.” -Jack Helbig, Daily Herald “Virtually flawless….deceptively mundane magic….McElroy’s genial, sneakily control-freakish edge as Ben is carefully modulated….” -Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune |
| “A resourceful, often illuminating production….fine work from Thomas Edson McElroy.” -Dan Zeff, Copely News |
| "…the production is wholly transcendent." -Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times "…one of the highlights of the summer season…a rich, colorful gallery of characters." -Richard Christiansen, Chicago Tribune |
| Thomas Edson McElroy... a strong and self- confident Henry, a man who is like the rocks of Stonehenge… nobody knocks him down.” - Virginia Gerst, Pioneer Press |
| “The Lion Roars…. Refreshingly great…. Thomas Edson McElroy is a powerful presence.” -Jeffrey P. Brown |
| “A disarming blast! Five wonderful actors spin it like SNL gone slightly more serious…. Thomas Edson McElroy’s Gus has the look and sound of the classic discontent….(he) brims with the paranoia and psychoses of a trapped rat. As funny as he is frightening.” -Mitchell Oldham, Rolling Out News “Thomas Edson McElroy, a bundle of resentment and pique...a human time bomb. An ensemble that brings their characters to cartoonish life.” -Rick Reed, Windy City Times |
| “An evening of fun and laughter...cute, silly, lighthearted. The actors have as good a time as the audience. Thomas E. McElroy’s Papa is bombastic and never in fear of being too small...The bigness and boldness is the glue to this whole evening.” -Lila Stromer , Centerstage Chicago |
| A group of incendiary performers - the kind you will only find in Chicago - are hard at work. The crackerjack work of director Amy Morton set Thomas Edson McElroy, Keith Kupferer and Darrell W. Cox at the "explosive" level. -Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times |
| "Men Of Tortuga"...Blows its companion pieces out of the garage. -Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune |
