INTO THE WOODS

It would be difficult to isolate one performance as most outstanding and with a cast of 18 it would be difficult to comment on each performance. That being said, Blane Pressler and Brittany Proia are exceptionally wonderful as the Baker and his Wife.” John Woodfin, Rolla Daily News

Standout performances are showcased by Brittany Proia, Blane Pressler…There’s considerable chemistry as well between her and Pressler as the well-meaning baker…Pressler conveys both the passion and stubbornness of the baker in a performance that grounds him in reality…” Mark Bretz, Ladue News

…the standouts did a wonderful job with Pressler as the Baker and Proia as the Baker’s Wife leading the way. They both have strong voices and handled the score very nicely while doling out humorously believable husband and wife moments.” Andrea Torrence, stlouistheatresnob.blogspot.com

CITY OF ANGELS

Blane Pressler’s turn as Munoz, Stone’s vengeful Latino ex-partner, displays an incredibly focused and acrobatic tenor voice, along with a killer accent.” Ron McCutchan, Bureau County Republican

NOISES OFF

Blane Pressler is fantastic as the quintessentially British idiot, always one step behind the story…It’s just amazing that the whole cast has so finely polished every one of their hundreds of little thoughts and decisions… up to the boiling point of pace and precision.” Richard Green, talkinbroadway.com

Blane Pressler shows sharp comic sense as the overwhelmed Frederick.” Mark Bretz, Ladue News

…a group of fine actors, most of whom are adept farceurs. Sarah Cannon and Blane Pressler are standouts… Pressler’s Frederick, plagued by nosebleeds and a constant need to understand his character’s motivation, is less annoying than he might be. Both are excellent physical comics, as well.” Andrea Braun, KDHX.org

Blane Pressler is hilarious as Frederick…” Andrea Torrence, stlouistheatresnob.blogspot.com

PASSION

Blane Pressler is excellent as Jesus…psychologically, he’s remarkable—wise, loving, gentle, easily amused—and later, heart-wrenching in the garden of Gethsemane.” Richard Green, talkinbroadway.com

THE CRUCIBLE

Blane Pressler brings compassion and understanding to the role of the frustrated and merciful Reverend Hale…” Mark Bretz, Ladue News

THE DIVINERS

… in smaller parts that contribute substantially to the production’s impact are Blane Pressler and Michael Detmer as a pair of local farmhands…” Mark Bretz, Ladue News

LEND ME A TENOR

The pace and pressure are excellent throughout. Mr. Pressler, as the hapless young assistant, brings a touch of Arthur Lake doubt and panic to the role, showing a total lack of vocal support early on… manages to inspire the young Mr. Pressler’s “Max” to greatness is just another great part of a great show.” Richard Green, talkinbroadway.com

HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING

One of the stand-outs is Blane Pressler as Bud Frump…he is hilarious as he connives to stop Finch’s quick movement in the company and whines to his mother about his own ambitions.” Kevin Smith, What’s Up Magazine

THE COMEDY OF ERRORS

Scott Frey and Blane Pressler, as the two Dromios, looking like something between Tweedle Dee and Bozo, with obvious comic vocal styles, run off with most of the show.” Susan Burns, What’s Up Magazine

THE TAMING OF THE SHREW

Blane Pressler as Tranio, the servant with whom Lucentio trades places, is amazingly funny, as he generally is on stage.” Kevin Smith, What’s Up Magazine

KISS ME KATE

The gangsters, played by Aaron Mann and Blane Pressler, give understated and cool performances.” Aaron Krause, Norwalk Reflector

LOVE’S LABOR LOST

Blane Pressler (Costard) clowns with vaudevillian panache…” Ron McCutchan, Bureau Country Republican.
