REPRESENTATIVE LIST OF CREDITS
“Some of the jokes we’ve heard before, but not with this delivery, and certainly not in this kind of framework. They work because of the high-energy and charismatic performance of Wilson-Brown, who navigates the playwright’s tone shifts with ease. He crosses performance borders, and the audience is willing to follow him wherever he travels.”
“David Wilson-Brown turns in an excellent performance in the one-man play Fronteras Americanas.”
“David Wilson-Brown re-creates Verdecchia’s semi-autobiographic work as if it were his own, raging and whispering, storming and elucidating a philosophical intellectual point with committed passion and easy, artistic fluency.”
“Wilson-Brown successfully captures second son Happy’s slick and disingenuous side.”
“David Wilson-Brown delivers a strong, breathtaking performance portraying Stanley’s roller coaster of emotions.”
“David Wilson-Brown stays true to the stage version, and [his] sound design… matched the scene so well that audiences reacted emotionally.”
“This script has plenty of the one-liners and comically exploding characters that populate the better-known realms of Simon’s output. But this one has a different feel and a different engine driving it at a reckless pace. Director David Wilson-Brown taps into that artfully and manages to keep both hands on the wheel while keeping his foot to the floorboard.”
“The Mystery of Irma Vep… If you miss this production, the horror! The horror!”
“At Theatre Arlington, Charles Ludlam’s The Mystery of Irma Vep is in good, vampy hands…This was a highly popular literary form during the 19th century, which was appropriated into 20th-century television programming through shows such as Dark Shadows and Tales from the Darkside. Theatre Arlington’s production, directed by David Wilson-Brown, is synchronized and wickedly funny.”
