American Theatre Magazine’s Role Call
FEATURE American Theatre Magazine - “Arredondo has ‘no fear or ego when it comes to taking a role or a job, whether it be big or small,’ said actor and director Ryan Sellers. ‘The arts are not a means to an end for him. The art is the point. The story is the goal. He is what theatre is at its best.’”

AWARD Helen Hayes Awards - Nomination of Michael Burgos for Outstanding Lead Performer in a Play (Helen)
REVIEW DC Theater Arts - 2022 Staff Favorites: Outstanding Professional Performances
REVIEW DC Theater Arts - “This complicated and uneven relationship is shaped for the production under the thoughtful direction of Dylan Arredondo. His ability to choreograph the passage of time, in particular, was delightful.” “Lively, sharp, witty, and challenging, Unexpected Stage Company’s Fade makes you question if we have to leave pieces of ourselves and our culture behind as we climb to “the top” and if, in the end, the climb is worth the cost.”
REVIEW MD Theatre Guide - “What makes this production relevant and worth seeing are its tight direction and powerful performances.”
REVIEW K Street Magazine - “Sharp, witty, sensitive, and yes — unexpected — Fade offers insights into race and class within the Mexican-American community.”

The Decameron - Synetic Theater
REVIEW MD Theatre Guide - “These two actors play wonderfully off of each other, and have created an insane comedy worthy of Laurel and Hardy. They both have that level of oddly graceful physicality in these performances. It was a hoot and laugh-out-loud funny but also unexpectedly tender.”
REVIEW DC Theatre Scene - “[Arredondo] proves in his short piece that he has a good sense for comedic acting and how to tell a story through physical action and facial expression. Arredondo has cast Jared Graham as his easily-duped partner, and the two of them give us one of the most unlikely and goofiest odd couples ever.”
REVIEW BroadwayWorld - “And for those who love the old 20's style slapstick, complete with intertitles and upright-piano accompaniment, you can't go wrong with Dylan Arredondo's tale (Day 5), in which he cons his roomie and drinking buddy (the clueless Jared Graham) into thinking he's pregnant.”

REVIEW No Proscenium - woolgatherings - “It’s this need to energize our souls that woolgatherings from Performance Interface Lab explores: an experience about fostering self healing and care arriving at just the perfect time.” “Every moment of self discovery lands perfectly without being steamrolled by the forthcoming activity. I feel my mental storm clouds begin to break apart, allowing in much needed personal happiness.” “It dawns on me that it doesn’t matter how well structured our act of kindness is, but rather that we attempted to connect with someone else at all. And in appreciating and understanding the kindness that Performance Interface Lab has provided me to use and carry forward, I find that to be a valuable and precious gift to have during the pandemic.”
REVIEW No Proscenium - Couples Therapy - "There are two kinds of people in the world: people who want to give other people — even total strangers — advice about their intimate relationships, and rocks. If you are not a rock, you will love Couples Therapy." "They're offering a delicious format that is guaranteed to give the participant a rich experience, an experience of connection, an experience of grappling, and just maybe, a moment of transformation."; OUT OF TIME - “…the instruction for the participants is thoughtful and ties into memories you didn’t think you had…”
PRESS BroadwayWorld - “We artists should not stop making - we should stop making the same old thing in the same old way. What is the nature of creating work that is as rigorous and as intentional now using the tools that we have (and do not have) to our advantage? How can we keep theatre ephemeral and reactive to the time and space that we’re in? When we lack the interactivity of shared space, of togetherness, how must we increase interactivity elsewhere in the work in order to bridge that gap to achieving theatricality?”
