A CHRISTMAS STORY
Actors Theatre of Louisville
"Justin R. G. Holcomb, as Ralphie's Old Man, is hilarious in his physicality and vocal depth."
-- Michelle Rynbrandt, Louisville.com "Jessica Wortham and Justin R. G. Holcomb reprise their roles of Mother and The Old Man from last year's production and I'm so glad they did. They were a ton of fun and succeed in being reminiscent of the iconic performances from the film while still creating their own roles and their chemistry together was great." -- Brian Walker, Theatre Louisville |

Off-Broadway
"Charlie (Justin R. G. Holcomb), a beefy everyman ... parodies the actor's (Pacino's) macho excess in high style. -- A.J. Mell, Backstage
"Holcomb is an affable performer who clearly relishes getting the chance to channel his own inner Pacino performance after performance." -- Mark Peikert, NY Press "Justin R. G. Holcomb plays Charlie with a straightforwardness that is endearing even when the character is in situations that are absurd, and handles the huge amount of narration using a well-timed mug to the audience to make us feel in on the joke and keep us engaged." -- Aimee Tordoff, NYTheatre.com "There's definitely a fine line between comedy and tragedy, and Holcomb's stellar impressions usually keep us laughing through his misfortunes." -- Chris Kompanek, TheatreMania.com |

"The performance of Justin R. G. Holcomb, returning in the role of The Old Man, illustrates the contrast. Last year he was a highlight, but this year he accentuates the slapstick of wrestling with the furnace and escaping the neighbor's dogs, once again leading the cast in hard-earned laughs."

A BRIEF HISTORY OF MURDER
The Brick Theatre
"Justin R.G. Holcomb as Detective Chamber is an authentic find. I can see him being typecast in a never ending parade of police captains and farmhands, but that would avail nothing if he were not so on the money in his measured, specific performance. I await his next stage turn with eagerness."
-- Trav S.D., Travelanche |
A CHRISTMAS STORY
Actors Theatre of Louisville
"Justin R. G. Holcomb was right on the money as The Old Man, churning up a righteous comic fury over the creaky old furnace or the neighbor's dogs, not to mention his almost unnatural devotion to the garish, erotic totem that he receives in the mail as a contest reward. Darren McGavin's performance of this role in the film is legend, but Mr. Holcomb beautifully captures that same spirit."
-- Keith Waits, Theatre Louisville |

Holcomb smolder in their carnal banter, but their unique circumstances would be hard to swallow were it not for the commitment that these comic heavyweights make to be playful." -- Cindy Pierre, New Theatre Corps "Standout Justin R. G. Holcomb walks the line between reserved and absurd, with surprises at every turn." -- Robin Reed, NYTheatre.com "Holcomb and Verleny have wonderful chemistry and are well suited to this sly, sexy play." -- Byrne Harrison, OffOffBroadway.com |
