Punch Shaw, Star-Telegram, FULLY COMMITTED:
"The real show here is Saylor's performance. If you want to see a tour de force..."
Jan Farrington, TheatreJones, FULLY COMMITTED:
"...as Sam...the New York-based Saylor gets into a physical and vocal rhythm that’s hyperkinetic and hilarious. Saylor finds space...to give us a glimpse of the real Sam..."
Nancy Churnin, Dallas Morning News, FULLY COMMITTED:
"...an opportunity for Saylor to dazzle us with his ability to segue swiftly and seamlessly among dozens of parts..."
Zander Opper, TalkinBroadway, THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA MCBRIDE:
"Russell Saylor is simply sensational in this part. Looking dynamite and performing the drag numbers flawlessly, Saylor allows Miss Tracy Mills to be a mentor of sorts...and the results are exhilarating and touching. Saylor is stunning throughout, but the real bonus of his performance is that he brings a great deal of heart to the show, as well as more than a bit of levity.”
Karen Isaacs, BerkshireFineArts, THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA MCBRIDE:
"Russell Saylor is a gem blending compassion, realism, and show business savvy."
Nancy Sasso Janis, Patch, THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA MCBRIDE:
"Saylor captures both the big personality of the drag persona as well as the quieter person behind the scenes. Watching her train her protege is a riot."
Sherry Shameer Cohen, BroadwayWorld, THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA MCBRIDE:
"Saylor...give[s] their role value and esteem."
FilmShortage, A NEW MAN:
"...Charles' mundane attitude gives A NEW MAN a certain layer of depth played to ingeniously by Russell Saylor..."
JWR (jamesweggreview.org), Palm Springs International ShortFest, A NEW MAN:
"...Russell Saylor is superb as the suddenly born-again, model of confidence..."
Rick Rogers, The Oklahoman, THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW:
"Saylor commands the stage as the salacious but sweet transvestite Frank 'n' Furter, a role that allows this accomplished actor to push the boundaries of taste into an over-the-top performance that crackles with energy."
Isa Goldberg, TheatreLife, STRINGS ATTACHED:
"In this role, Russell Saylor sensitively portrays the father or Quantum Theory, while fortunately injecting some comic relief as well."
Marc Miller, NY Theatre Guide, SMILE:
"Tommy (Russell Saylor, excellent), the almost-big-time choreographer, is a beguiling mixture of jaundiced and noble..."
Michael McGonigle, Philadelphia Museum of Art Film Lecturer, THE LOVE PERMIT:
"Saylor is excellent as a character who lives within a world of coping with moral compromising each and every working day of his life."
