HAIR, as Claude, American Theatre Company, Chicago // Directed by PJ Paparelli + JR Sullivan
Time Out Chicago: "★★★★★"
Chicago Tribune: "Highly Recommended...3 ½ Stars" "...Claude (played with some sadness by Zach Kenney)...A charismatic young performer..." *Included, "Top Ten Shows of the Year" Feature
Chicago Theatre Review: "Zach Kenney truly leads this cast as a multi-dimensional, charismatic Claude."
Chicagoist: "...Earnestly passionate...ATC’s reinvented Hair is not the sanitized, Broadway babes version of productions past. The group is quasi-led by...Claude (Zach Kenney), the sweet anglophile whose draft number is up next. Kenney shows us a truly conflicted Claude, a young guy who is generally scared of either path he faces: burn his draft card and go to jail, or be shipped off to Vietnam."
Newcity Stage: "Recommended" "...The...storyline concerns the anguished indecision of Claude (played with a sweet vulnerability by Zach Kenney)..."
Buzz News Chicago: "Zach Kenney is just terrific as 'Claude'...Kenney shows a vast range of emotions and is also able to carry the role vocally with just the right amount of finesse."
“Kenney’s beatific Claude...feather[s] this tribe’s nest.”
“Zach Kenney radiates a sweetness and light that grab your heart...”
