Unprofessional Opinion’s Callbacks

FEATURE Unprofessional Opinion - “I do not believe it is possible for Dylan Arredondo to play it safe. His performances are compellingly fearless, showcasing boldly unbridled creativity. If a choice can be made that is more eccentric or more illuminating, he will always make it, with unwavering commitment. Particularly with Lend Me a Soprano, Arredondo was a captivating presence onstage from his very first entrance. Seesawing between fiery outrage and impassioned longing, his characterization managed to expertly balance authenticity and ridiculousness. A performance from Dylan Arredondo is guaranteed to delight and impress you.”

Lend Me a Soprano - Olney Theatre Center

REVIEW Unprofessional Opinion - SEE IT - “Dylan Arredondo immediately stole the show the moment he entered as Elena’s aggressive yet insecure husband Pasquale. His thick Italian accent and imposing physicality created endlessly hilarious moments, such as his jealous, flailing tantrum on the bed.”

REVIEW MD Theatre Guide - “Arredondo’s Pasquale is a bit Pavarotti and a bit Jackie Gleason, playing the jealous and phlegmatic husband of Elena Firenzi.”

As You Like It - Chesapeake Shakespeare Company

REVIEW DC Theater Arts - “Dylan Arredondo’s lecherous Touchstone steals many scenes.”

REVIEW MD Theatre Guide - “Memorable moments include Touchstone (Dylan Arredondo), the court jester who deters a rival by bouncing him off the stage with his belly.”

REVIEW BroadwayWorld - “Shakespeare’s clown character, called Touchstone in As You Like It, played with arch fatuousness by Dylan Arredondo, accompanies Rosalind and Celia into the forest of Arden, then pursues his own agenda.”

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.’”

REVIEW DC Theater Arts - 2023 Staff Favorites: Outstanding Professional Productions

REVIEW MD Theatre Guide - “Arredondo opens the show and has the difficult task of getting the audience acclimated to the rhyming dialogue and over the top storylines. He succeeds beautifully. Arredondo and his beloved Eliante, played by incomparable Ria Simpkins, are truly the heart of the show. It helps that both actors are fabulous physical comedians and their love story is as hysterical to watch as it is touching.”

REVIEW DC Theater Arts - “Philinte (Dylan Arredondo), in a stunning pink ensemble, initially offers us a cynical and very funny monologue on the benighted state of life in 17th-century France. Arredondo’s Philinte, in the course of the play, will be adored, flattered, transformed into royalty, and repeatedly denied the affection of his beloved Eliante. He endures it all with a smile, a gift for physical comedy, and infectious good nature.”

REVIEW Metro Weekly - “Luckily for us, Arredondo’s charming Philinte, appearing solo at the top to sum up the setting, also ushers the audience into the bouncy meter and wordplay of Ives’ script. Arredondo finds a winking style for delivering the rhyming verse, matched by a boldly sassy demeanor that instantly sets the show’s mannered tone.”

Despite their bickering, the two seemed like the best of chums and seemed to be having the time of their lives together. Their scenes were always highlights… …Enough [of the silly comic bits worked] to make the audience laugh uproariously. And they gave a lightness to the potentially existential scenes in which the household objects contemplate their fates – this version of the show felt more warm and light than those I’ve seen in the past.”

Much Ado About Nothing - Chesapeake Shakespeare Company

REVIEW MD Theatre Guide - “The laurels for this performance rest squarely on the shoulders of Dylan Arredondo as Benedick. His brash confidence, highly energetic character work, humorous delivery, and repartee with the audience all combined into a stellar rendition of a character that has been played by many a great actor. I have many favorite moments from the evenings revelries…”

REVIEW BroadwayWorld - “Arredondo flirts charmingly with both Beatrice and the audience, bounding about with abundant confidence and good humor. It is impossible not to like him.”

REVIEW TheatreBloom - “Dylan Arredondo’s portrayal of Benedick was masterful in his ability to balance the ‘Prince’s jester’ with reluctant lover, and the scene where Claudio and Pedro lead a (not well) hidden Benedick into thinking Beatrice is in love with him shines as a beautiful moment of blocking, phrasing, and comedic timing on Arredondo’s part to have the audience in stitches.”

REVIEW DC Theater Arts - “…Dylan Arredondo imbues Tom with humor, vulnerability, bombast, and a wry embarrassed fondness of his remembered self. Arredondo, as Tom, makes genuine connections with the other characters, is tenderly protective of his sister, conspiratorial with his co-worker, and even gently teasing with his mother in a particular sequence. Arredondo clearly understood what Tennessee Williams wished us, the audience, to know: that Tom and Amanda’s relationship was not exclusively, perpetually contentious.”

REVIEW BroadwayWorld - “Simpkins' charm and exuberance are matched by Dylan Arredondo's Bernie — the gamer who relishes being the 'bad-guy' character in every scenario, whether he's getting in touch with his inner Orc or browbeating Dave as the English Literature Professor Sprung From Dante's Ninth Circle (this avatar has a fan club already, hardly surprising).”

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.”
