THE CRITICS RAVE:

(about Sky Gilbert as OTTO in Nicky Silver's THE FOOD CHAIN)


"THE FOOD CHAIN at The Saidye Bronfman Centre features a hilarious performance by Sky Gilbert, founder of Toronto's Buddies in Bad Times Theatre."

-Pat Galloway

"Acteur tres puissant, auqel sa corpulence donne des possibilites rares (on l'imagine en Falstaff), il a du Fatty Arbuckle et du Woody Allen: subtil et etremement mobile dans ses expressions, massif mais leger comme une plume, il conquiert son public avec un naturel et un plaisir contagieux."

-Solange Levesque LE DEVOIR May '97

"Gilbert plays a convincing fat man, demonstrating a gift for physical comedy. He's probably the funniest oreolicker in the country."

-Janet Coutts THE MONTREAL GAZETTE May '97
