Review Excerpts
“’A PHYSICAL ‘SHREW’ IN A RETURN BOUT’….A more impressive newcomer is Randall Duk Kim, who joined the company this season to play King Richard and now assumes a smaller role of the servant Tranio. Kim’s skillful comic portrayal is a pleasure to listen to and watch….”
–Stanley Eichelbaum, SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER (1/15/1975)
“’ACT HAS FUN WITH ‘SHREW’’….It is perhaps more Ball than Shakespeare, with many low comedy touches grabbing for laughs. But both players and audience have a wonderful time in this flamboyant production and ‘Shrew’ should remain THE great crowd-pleaser in the company’s repertory…. I was delighted to see Randall Duk Kim (who plays the evil Yorkist king in ACT’s ‘Richard III’) emerge such a talented comedian in his role as Tranio, the servant to Lucentio…. “
–William Hogan, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE (1/16/1975)
“’VERSATILE ACT PLAYERS EXCEL IN’TAMING OF THE SHREW’’….Randall Duk Kim (Richard III on other nights) turns out to be a very funny comedian….”
–Dorothy Nichols, PALO ALTO TIMES (1/16/1975)
