Reviews

"Zak’s perfectly awkward and comically endearing […] with his emotional energy tempered by the propriety of duty eventually bursts with humanity when he breaks free and finds his own voice.”

— Hollywood Times

"As Don, Eric Zak is fabulous. Rich, but frazzled and worn down by life, he is just trying to keep it all together. He is living proof of one of his best lines: 'Money doesn’t make you as happy as you think it will.' Zak is quite funny, and very lovable."

CV Independent

“[…]brilliant[…] Eric Zak imbues Don with such warmth that when its his turn to unload his troubles, instead of feeling like saying ‘it’s your own fault,’ you want to give him a great big hug and say ‘there, there’ instead.”

“By the end we are rooting for this sad sack whose means contradict his clothes so good job by Zak.”

Broadway World

“Eric Zaklukiewicz is amazing, embodying convincingly two diametrically opposed characters, possessed of two different voices and manners. His transitioning between Tyrone the devil and Jason the repressed angel is a work of total mastery, an absolute tour de force.”

“Brilliant."

"With a clear distinction between both characters, Eric Zaklukiewicz is amazing as both Jason and Tyrone. While the difference in voice, tone and delivery that he creates between the shy, introverted and withdrawn Jason and the outrageous Tyrone is excellent, it is the addition of his polished puppeteering skills that creates two incredibly distinct individuals. His performance is so superb that after a while I started thinking there were two people on stage whenever Jason and Tyrone were conversing."

Gil Benbrook, Talkin’ Broadway

"Much of Hand to God plays like an especially ill-disciplined hurricane, and the eye of that hurricane is Zaklukiewicz, whose performance inspires both awe and pity. As mild-mannered Jason and demon puppet Tyrone, he whiplashes between slapstick and fury, a striking technical feat in a sometimes simultaneous pair of performances."

Robert Pela, Phoenix New Times

“... Eric Zaklukiewicz is a hoot…”

Gil Benbrook, Talkin’ Broadway

“The serious props for ‘Speak’ have to go to scene-stealer Eric Zaklukiewicz as David. […] Zaklukiewicz provides a very convincing and engaging performance, sinisterly slipping into a vengeful, sadistic lunacy […] presenting a perfect mix of homicidal fervor tinged in visible remorse.”

The Cinema Files

“[…] amazing […]. He’s gawky and innocent but worldly as he confronts life, explores his sexuality, keeps friends even with those rejected by others, and approaches life with a steadfast determination to succeed.”

Chris Curcio, KBAQ

“The cast is just about as good as you could ask for, particularly Eric Zaklukiewicz, who brings a wry vulnerability to the role of CB that sets the tone for the entire production.”

Kerry Lengel, AZ Republic

"Especially brilliant is Eric Zaklukiewicz who essays Johnny with touching sensitivity and honest sincerity."
