Marco – The Actor
What Critics Have Said About Marco's Acting
A Midsummer Night's Dream: The Musical
"Marco Antonio Rodriguez, king of both fairies and comedy in this production, plays Oberon as a smarmy Tony Orlando greeting the dawn of the Age of Aquarius in sparkly boots and fuzzy facial hair. Both he and Titania are hilarious and do the most of any of the large ensemble in projecting the comedy into the vast expanses of the Samuell-Grand Amphitheatre."
-Elaine Liner, Dallas Observer

"The performances by Marco Antonio Rodriguez and Gonzalez are exquisite, particularly the steamy seduction--the hottest sex-with-clothes makeout we've seen on a local stage since Octavio Solis' Prospect some 20 years ago."
-Elaine Liner, Dallas Observer
"Marco Rodriguez gives a fine, shaded performance as Anibal, registering both incredulity and ardor with equal success."
-Glenn Arbery, Park Cities People
"Marco Antonio Rodriguez and Gonzalez deliver expert performances. There's palpable chemistry between them, especially in a sexy seduction scene that held the audience breathless without any words being spoken. There's an earthy delicacy about these actors that allows them to seem grounded and ethereal at the same time."
