Mac Brydon

Docksey (Mac Brydon)…takes time out to seduce and become moony-eyed over Dex's girlfriend Laney.

Mac Brydon...super-talented

The piece is very well-acted. I especially enjoyed Mac Brydon...

Brydon's Gary proves a perfect foil...a money-obsessed fast talking fellow...a hoot, at once ridiculous and eerily plausible.

Mac Brydon as manager Abie Stein brings a bit of Damon Runyan to the mix with his over-the-top New York accent...

...Brydon gets a lot of mileage out of Crouch, the caretaker...

Brydon's work was simply amazing. There is really no other way to put it. He was natural in everything he did...his Chevy-Chase/John Ritter-like physicality was reminiscent of the simple beauty of Dudley Moore hiding behind the flowers in the chapel in "10" - hilarious, believable, entertaining and FUN.

Brydon's utter physical ease and verbal dexterity made the audience instantly enamored of him.

The physical comedy worked best. Mac Brydon, returning late in a second role as Gus, a geriatric stage hand, has a lot of fun inching about in contortions of pain.

The acting is spot on, especially with the two leads, Mac Brydon as Pimm and Ryan Tramont as Thomas.

Mac Brydon and Ian Pfister deliver remarkable performances.

The cast members (all game)...

This excellent ensemble...play their roles extremely well...

Talented, appealing Mac Brydon was wasted in the one-trick role of Fletch, Harpagon's flamboyantly gay servant.

...ridiculously high-strung boss, Adam Jacoby (Mac Brydon)...manic...high octane...

The cast is uniformly fine...Mac Brydon...as British ex pat Robert Pimm...is adroitly driven and enigmatic.

Mac Brydon's understated performance as Bob works beautifully...

Austin Pendleton’s direction is masterful. He elicits tight, natural performances from actors playing characters who grow increasingly unnatural...Mac Brydon is delicious as Adam.

...a scene in which Tom reduces his closeted, gay-baiting boss (Mac Brydon) to a simpering slave is priceless, its transitional exchange hilariously played by the two actors.

...the all-knowing bartender Sean MacGuire (Mac Brydon, a perfect calm center amidst the little dramas roiling around him)...

Mac Brydon as Benedick aptly leads the show, turning in a wonderfully wry comic portrayal.

Brydon’s portrayal of Jim is the strongest in the show...every time he speaks, it’s electric.

Mac Brydon, as Abie, works hard to keep up his Noo Yawk accent...succeeding.

The characters Dr. Hallemeier and Dr. Gall are the closest thing to a comedy team in R.U.R. - Mac Brydon and Kevin Bernard find enough dimensions in these two to keep these science geeks grounded, so that their undoing in the second act is all the more touching.

Pfister and Brydon...delightfully enthusiastic torturers...Spitting out rapid-fire dialogue and jumping around the theatre like manic five-year-olds with switchblades, Mac and Ian created an electric tension that made their performances among the most memorable to grace a New York stage this year…

…Brydon and Siner have formed a bond so strong...it seems like they're both at the center of the action, even when they're not. You can almost feel Brydon's eyes boring into Siner as Kirsten begs a neighbor for vanilla extract, for example; their work is really that connected.

The show opens as Rollo meets with a theater manager, Abie Stein (Mac Brydon), to unfold plans for his debut. “ ‘Hamlet?’ ” says the skeptical Mr. Stein. “Do you think anyone wants to see it?

…with Mac Brydon offering a fine supporting turn...

…blessed with excellent actors in its leading roles…Brydon, whom I enjoyed in a production of Moonchildren, is even better here; he can act in a wonderfully intimate, naturalistic style and yet clearly project his character's emotions...when Brydon does let go, it's chilling.

The play is worth seeing if only for Mac Brydon’s sharp, animated performance as Pimm. A role that could easily regress to all surface gestures and tells is held on compellingly even keel. The actor gives us a real sense of his character’s whirring mind. Tone is insidiously seductive. A pleasure to watch.
