- Obie Award-Winning actor Matthew Maher
"Like falling in love for the first time."
- Bill Coelius, professional commerical actor (NFL, Maxwell House, Hershey's, 76 Gas station, Zantac, ETrade, Rutgers University, and more)
"Kirk's words are ambrosia . . . or maybe that's not strong enough . . . some kind of sweet addictive narcotic. Once you begin to speak it, you don't want to stop."
- Ian Hill, Artistic Director of critically acclaimed New York theater company Gemini CollisionWorks
"You get to use all those techniques that we've been taught to use to bring dense, multi-image, complex and rich dramatic poetry to life and you get to do it with works that haven't already been picked apart by ten thousand actors before you. Indeed working on these plays is like living the great American trailblazing dream. What actor can resist this?"
- Hank Wagner, of New York's critically acclaimed De La Guarda
