—————

Rob Hubbard, Pioneer Press (Whoa, Nellie!, History Theatre)

“But no one can eclipse the star quality of Rosenberg… [who] demonstrates that they have musical theater chops in abundance and an astonishingly versatile voice that can slide from operatic soprano to bluesy tenor. We’ll likely look back upon their performance as one of the year’s best.”

Arthur Dorman, Talkin’ Broadway (Whoa, Nellie!, History Theatre)

“…remarkable performance by Em Adam Rosenberg in the title role.”

“I can say without hesitation that they can not only hold the center [of a musical], but also spin it on the tip of their finger should they choose to. Rosenberg has a full, evocative voice with a wide range (k.d. lang comes to mind) and emits a charisma that never wanes… Rosenberg wins us over.”

Chris Hewitt, Star Tribune (Top Girls, Theatre Pro Rata)

“Rosenberg, who played a ferocious warrior in the opening scene, returns as Marlene's inarticulate niece, who is filled with anger she doesn't know what to do with… Rosenberg is the standout in the nimble ensemble.”

Jay Gabler, The Tangential (Top Girls, Theatre Pro Rata)

“Rosenberg’s badass Dull Gret uses her few words well… Rosenberg [is] grippingly enthusiastic.”

Scott Melamed, Racket MN (Romeo and Juliet, The Gray Mallard Theater Co.)

“Rosenberg plays Romeo as witty and a bit nerdy, well-attuned to when to strike with passion. They’re funny, seamlessly modulating between the teen’s cool and heat. Rosenberg has a real talent for listening and responding to scene partners…”

“Rosenberg’s humor shines.”

The Stages of MN (Mary’s Wondrous Body, The Birth Play Project)

“Rosenberg has been on my one to watch for awhile now and once again they reminded me why. Towards the end of the show, they have a moment of song that was beyond anything I’d seen or known they were capable of before.”

The Stages of MN (Bernhardt/Hamlet, Theatre Pro Rata)

“ ‘The stand out for me was Em Adam Rosenberg’…could just as easily be the start of my comments regarding Rosenberg in every show I’ve seen them in. Rosenberg is cast not based on gender, but because they are the best actor for the role of Rostand. We completely believe this version of Rostand even as we know he is in most ways a fiction of the playwright.”
