Reviews

Drowsy Chaperone, Gateway Playhouse, 2009

"Subplots involve a worried producer (Anthony Reimer) and his ditsy (or maybe not) girlfriend (Ellie Mooney)...Dom Ruggiero, the director, guides the highly talented cast with punch and confidence, pulling out all the stops for rousing musical numbers but letting the quieter parts — the show starts in pitch-blackness, with only the narrator’s witty monologue piercing the dark — develop fully, too."

"Throw in a conniving producer (Anthony Reimer), his ditsy blond girlfriend (Ellie Mooney)...and you have a Roaring '20s hoot"

"[The Bride and Groom] fall in love and get engaged, but they must deal with Feldzeig (played by Anthony Reimer), Janet’s producer, who wants her to come back to show biz. Feldzeig tries to prevent Robert and Janet from getting married by calling on Adolpho (played by James Donegan), a Latin Don Juan, to seduce Janet...the play displays impeccable performances...the cast’s performances make the show what it is—a lively, entertaining comedy."

"Janet (Jennifer Byrne) is a showgirl looking to change the stage for a wealthy handsome suitor, Robert Martin (Sean Montgomery). Her producer, Feldzieg (Anthony Reimer) has other ideas though because he is in debt to crooks who want the show to go on so that they can be paid...This is a show where you cannot get by with mediocre actors and Gateway management are to be commended for assembling this collection of very highly talented artists, who combined to keep the opening night audience laughing throughout and who fully deserved their standing ovation."

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Richmond Shepard Theatre, 2009

"Anthony Reimer as Dr. Spivey, the overworked and too-often absent voice of reason, is good-humored and likable." Full Review

Copper Green, Wide Eyed Productions/Shortened Attention Span, 2009

"Copper Green, which opens the evening, takes place on the Staten Island Ferry. A family from the American Midwest—a Dad (Anthony Reimer), an older sister (Stacy Ayn Price), and a kid brother (John Barbieri)—are riding the boat around the Statue of Liberty, while a man who appears to be of Arab descent (he's wearing a Muslim-style skullcap) alternately watches them and tries to ignore them. The father uses this moment to try to explain what his older son is fighting for in Iraq. Anthony Augello has directed this wry comedy nicely, and his cast is superlative: the actors playing the three family members have a chemistry that feels especially authentic. What I like best about Copper Green is the tension between the Dad's attempt to understand what the War in Iraq really means and his own strangeness in New York City, as reflected in the eyes of the Arab American New Yorker who is trying to get to work without having to interact too much with annoying tourists."

The Boys Next Door, Brown County Playhouse, 2008

"Anthony Reimer plays Norman, the most able of the quartet, but with donuts as his passion and caloric downfall....Allison Moody was a wonder as the mentally challenged young woman who comes to love the donut craving Norman. They had the most magical moment of the show, as they first shuffled in a clumsy dance with their feet and then for just a moment or two showed the graceful ballet of their souls."
--George Walker, WFIU Indiana

"Steven Thomas, Anthony Reimer, Harper Jones and Ansley Valentine are spectacular as the Boys"
--Glenn Kaufmann, Herald Times

Much Ado About Nothing, Wide Eyed Productions, 2008

"There are stand out performances from the dreamy Brian Floyd as an enticing Benedick, Scott Voloshin’s creepy villain Don John is perfectly crafted with a less-is- more comedic approach and Anthony Reimer gives a powerful yet tender performance as the loveable Leonato."
--Melissa Cruz, Sugarzine

Three Sisters, Alabama Shakespeare Festival, 2006

"Anthony Reimer's depiction of Andrey, whose fear of failure and inability to face reality erupts in a passionate moment, make the journey worth it."
--Michael P. Howley, Montgomery Advertiser

My Fair Lady, Little Theatre of the Rockies, 2005

"Reimer's portrayal of Eliza's charming, raffish father sets a whole new standard. He bellows, scratches and breathes a fog of ale on the show's prissy aristocrats."
--John Bromley, Greeley Tribune

No, No, Nanette, Little Theatre of the Rockies, 2005

"The role of Jimmy is played beautifully by Anthony Reimer, a talented veteran of many shows and many stages. Reimer's Jimmy is a man of great and essential kindness whose downfall is best expressed in his theme song "I Want To Be Happy," for Jimmy is only happy when all around him are happy too. It is Jimmy, skillfully crafted by Reimer into a genial, affectionate paterfamilias, who has involved his family with three scheming women he has, all innocently, befriended and given money to."
--John Bromley, Greeley Tribune

The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail, Little Theatre of the Rockies, 2004

"Reimer's Emerson is a man battling the limiting features of his own success, dwindling finally to a safe irrelevance. Reimer is stunning..."
--John Bromley, Greeley Tribune

HurlyBurly, Little Theatre of the Rockies, 2004

"Gifted Anthony Reimer turns in another stellar performance, fitting into this raffish gang as easily and gracefully as he did last summer into the very different ambience of the comedy "Sylvia."
--John Bromley, Greeley Tribune

The Sound of Music, Little Theatre of the Rockies, 2003

"Anthony Reimer, who plays the Austrian, Max, is difficult to resist; Katrina said she liked him best of all the male performers."
--John Bromley, Greeley Tribune
