“Beck is charming as Andy, eliciting all of his naturally nervous qualities in actions as sweeping as confronting his idol or as tiny as donning or removing his jacket; he really seems to treat it as though he believes it doesn’t want it to touch him, which adds a sad pathos to a man you can’t help but like.””

“It is difficult to overpraise the cast...At the curtain call, just for a second, I looked at Beck and thought, who is this guy? He’d created such a completely other physical persona for Andy that I almost didn’t know him.”

“One of the strongest elements of this production is its stellar cast...David Beck as Andy works for every ounce of sympathy and endearment. He is very grounding throughout the play...when you have a cast of talented actors and a smart script, all you really need is an audience. I recommend that you provide that element to this production. It’s well worth it.”

“David Beck shines as the uncomprehendingly self-involved Matt...Acted impeccably under the nuanced direction of Craig Baldwin, the show is, in a word, terrific.”

“The cast is remarkable. Their characters possess them. David Beck take[s] the stage with honed skill and unwavering confidence.”

“...If all that spells nerd, it’s true, but Beck manages to combine bashful gaucherie and yearning and self-knowledge without ever seeming week, effeminate, or just foolish. It’s a beautifully modulated performance. ”

“I’m just gonna get right on out with it—-one of the stars of this show looks like a young Patrick Wilson.

That should sells tickets on its own. I mean. He’s handsome. And so alarmingly Wilsonesque that you notice it the minute he steps on the stage. You can’t stop noticing it. ”

“The most appealing cast member is David Beck as the younger Paul, who wins the audience over with his boyish charm. He subtly navigates through each moment of the relationship, as he fights for his relationship with James to work.”

“Beck, small of stature and with a child-like countenance, also deftly alternates among a number of sub-characters with falsetto voice or lordly demeanor or a commanding officer’s orders to charge into battle. Noonan and Beck more than deserved the ovation they received.”

“Equally adept was Beck’s performance, a tormented Hamlet coping with his demons and mortality, then striking out in an angry diatribe against Ophelia...

The dramatic range from Hamlet’s passion to Demetrius’ absurdity exacted a demanding performance by Beck. ”

“As a companion who may be the poet’s younger brother or an emissary from beyond the grave, David Beck is memorable.”

“[An] emphatic and nuanced performance from David Beck.”

“Well acted by David Beck”

“The two actors [David Beck and Mary Joy] fully inhabit their characters and share a strong chemistry that makes believable their propensity to confide intimate details of their lives so readily.”
