Paul with Tracy Shaffer as Mrs. Robinson
"Paul Page takes Mr. Robinson for a happy, scrumptious feast of well-placed words and direction. Page's transformation is enough to make you want to sit back in your seat and at the same time laugh. Is he grand? Oh yes, Page is grand." - ColoradoBackstage.com
"Paul Page is superb as Mr. Robinson. His performance of the scene in which Mrs. Robinson's impotent, raging husband confronts Benjamin in his Berkeley room is one of the finest to have been seen onstage this season." - Out Front Colorado
"Page's Mr. Robinson is an enigmatic arc from a genial, avuncular adviser to avenging and angry father, to mindful and apologetic husband." - Denver Post

Paul (left) with Chris Bleau as Milo
"Page is a must-see seether, his Andrew a man in a constant intellectual sneer whose imagination exceeds his reach. It's a role to be relished, and Page nearly loses himself as a man losing it." - Denver Post
"The two main reasons to see Sleuth are Paul Page and Chris Bleau, who will knock your socks off, wash and dry them, and put them back on your feet before you realize they’re missing. Page brings to manic life Andrew Wyke a highly successful mystery novelist. Page gives the performance of his life in this extraordinarily challenging role." - Colorado Backstage.com
"The performance of Paul Page is studied and articulate in his brilliant use of inventive stage movement, verbal tonality and accent. Mr. Page gives yet another memorable performance as this unbalanced eccentric writer." - Out Front Colorado

"Leading the way is veteran Paul Page, who is remarkably measured here." - Denver Post
"Juror 8, played with earnest restraint by Paul Page, is the voice of reason and decency, one man standing against 11 who just want to get out of a hot room." - Rocky Mountain News
"Paul Page's performance as the juror who takes a stand for the accused is brilliant beyond words. Page invests his character with a sense of dignity and integrity which is never put on in any external fashion, but which seems to radiate organically from deep within. His embodiment of this character's rock steady determination in the face of a room full of dissenters is formidable." - Out Front Colorado
"A clean, skillful production....Paul Page makes Juror 8's quiet strength vital and interesting.....as entertaining as an episode of Law & Order, only smarter, more tightly constructed and better intentioned." - Westword

"Page discovers all the wrinkles in foundering Mr. Vincent." - Variety.com
"Page completely transforms himself into a tottering old man...a dicey, juicy, fascinating character." - Colorado Backstage
"Wonderfully cast.....individually interesting characters played by gifted actors." - Denver Post

"Page and Persoff spice up the proceedings with an effervescent vivacity and affection that is heartening." - Out Front Colorado
"The McIlhennys are stock characters, but Page and Persoff give them warm and humorous life." - Westword

Paul with Lori Hansen as Myra
"Paul Page plays playwright Sidney Bruhl with consummate artistry and skill. Mr. Page, who stunned with his work in Miner's Alley's 1984, turns from the overt sadism of that role to a more subtle and covert cruelty in this role. The sensitive shifts in his face and physiology throughout the show are the stuff of brilliance." - Out Front Colorado
"Electrifying chemistry glues everything together from direction, set, lighting and sound, and mind-numbing characters by five incredible actors. Page projects Sidney Bruhl with every inch of his being. Page owns Sidney and Sidney owns Page." - Colorado Backstage.com

Paul as O'Brien with Dell Domnik as Winston Smith
"Paul Page manifests the full force of state terror with a frightfully remorseless and sadistic torture session in pursuit of Winston's soul. " - Variety.com
"Page is outstanding in the role of O'Brien, the sadistic overseer of the drones of Oceania. Page's sinister portrayal is jarring and unnerving. His best work to date! Both Page and Domnik are visually perfect in their roles." - Out Front Colorado
"Page engulfs a personality fitting snugly into Big Brother’s objective, creating deception, using his eyes as telescopes, his eyebrows as antennas, his facial expressions to entice and deceive, projecting a manner of mystery, coated with a thin veneer of ‘trust me if you dare.’" - Colorado Backstage.com

Paul at play's end
"An almost 20-year veteran of Denver stages, Paul Page relishes Ben's seriousness as he attends the dying Abbey with a practiced, weary patience and love strong enough to take her good-natured and not-so-good-natured jibes in stride. While leaning toward the somberness of a funeral director, Page creates a Ben that can at least smile at himself."
- Backstage.com
"Page's passionate portrayal is his best work since his award-winning performance in As Bees in Honey Drown. His portrait of a man torn between honesty and compassion at the bed of the dying matriarch is very moving. " - Out Front Colorado
"The opening scene is interesting, particularly since Abbey Grigson is played by the always-excellent Patty Mintz Figel, and Ben, the son, by the equally excellent Paul Page." - Westword

"Paul Page's performance as the sermonizing preacher stops the show." - Westword
"Page gets to spew such a sustained stream of vitriolic venom that he makes us feel the pain of religious fanaticism with new eyes/ears. Page's performance is brilliant." - Out Front Colorado

"Go see it for Paul Page's superb acting." - Out Front Colorado
"Page delivers his finest work to date." - Denver Post
Named one of the ten best productions of 2000 by the Rocky Mountain News' Lisa Bornstein: "Two actors at the top of their game speak separately with great humor and insight."

"The Bells of St. Sebastien's"
"Page gives a great performance. He's at his best with his version of the self-indulgent egocentric "Guido's Song," which got plenty of audience appreciation on press night." - Out Front Colorado
"Page does a terrific job of holding the show together, even as his character is falling apart." - Boulder Daily Camera
"Page is just the right combination of loveable bambino, fast-talking pitch man, passionate artist and aficionado of the fairer sex - not mention a fine singer - to do justice to Guido." - KUVO Radio

"Paul Page plays the sleazy husband Jack with more than a dash of TV sitcom style. Names like Wilbur and Rob and Darren come to mind as he whines and wheedles his way through scenes. It's a funny and resourceful performance." - Rocky Mountain News
"What an interesting hypocrite. Even knowing the plot did not take away from Paul Page's consummate portrayal of skullduggery. How can a man look so innocent one moment and so guilty the next? It's all a matter of style, and Page never loosened his grasp on Jack's evil soul. You never caught him looking like a hypocrite, he was so sincere." - Westword

Tom Kimball as Charlie Fox, Martha Harmon Pardee as Karen
"Paul Page is simply magnificent as the pony-tailed, greased back hustler who's just been kicked upstairs to select studio production material." - Up the Creek
"Paul Page and Tom Kimball are very good at Mamet-talk, which is not as easy as it looks. They have the hyper feel of a couple of guys on the make. Cut to Bobby's house at night. Page is marvelous in this scene as Karen seduces him with planetary babble. His eyes dart back and forth like a cornered urchin." - Rocky Mountain News
"Page, as the kind of topknotted hack you see throughout southern California, is nearly flawless. Page and Martha Harmon Pardee are two of Denver's best actors." - Westword
