Below are the last two reviews for Plato's Symposium. For certain reasons (which I feel like I can guess, but nevertheless I urge you to judge for yourself), these reviewers spent little time on actors' work in their comments. So I won't say much about them.
The first is in Baltimore's City Paper, written by Baynard Woods. He stresses an interesting historical and philosophical dimension that, largely because of the format of the performance, we didn't stress:

The second is a Bad Oracle review (if you're a Baltimore local, and a theater person no less, you'll know The Bad Oracle from their reviews of local theater here) -- and it's not an approving one:

BUT! Well... I'm mentioned positively, albeit briefly, in both of these. Soooo... Maybe I have little enough reason to care about bad praise, philosophical praise, or whatever.
Cheers folks! Thanks for loving me! My ego grows with every piece of flattery, but with every piece of insult ... well, with insult it also grows. It just grows and grows, that thing.
