NEW YORK REVIEWS FOR L-305

“From the moment Charles E. Gerber steps on stage, his emotion is palpable......In language both poetic and profound, actor Charles E. Gerber accords Bates a credibility which, even in moments of despair, retains a quiet dignity.....Gerber is a superb Bates. He treats audiences to an excellent show-from first word to last”.

..........F. E. Siegel, New York City Tribune

“L305 is a one-man play about an erratic, self absorbed poetry professor addressing his class; and it’s quite ably performed by Charles E. Gerber.”

..........Richmond Shepard, WNEW Radio

“Gerber was electrifyingly beautiful”

..........Finola Bourke, Irish Advocate

EXCERPTS FORM TORCH SONG TRILOGY NOTICES: NATIONAL TOUR

“MOVING TRILOGY IS A THEATRICAL MILESTONE!”

“It would be difficult to imagine a better lead performer than Charles E. Gerber....

..Gerber delivers a Tour-De-Force that rivals any operatic performance. Magnificently shaded and forceful, Gerber’s playing is shot through with wit, camp humor, and let’s just say it: humanity”

..........Bob Freund, The Miami Jewish Journal

“The Broadway touring production was wise, sentimental and hilarious, with sympathetic characters and a grand acting performance by Charles E. Gerber as Arnold Beckoff, the drag queen. Gerber wore his angst on his sleeve and (his) sense of humor was alternately dry and wildly wet....A standing ovation”.

..........Tom Gearhart, The Toledo Blade

“Gerber’s Arnold was riveting.....The performance, which calls for his presence on stage for almost the entire thing, completely wrapped the audience up in Arnold’s life. They laughed, cheered, and cried along with seven years and just under four hours of Arnold’s life and loves”.

..........Greg Stepanich, Daily Illini, U of IL.
