For No Room for Wishing:
“Fluidly and effortlessly, Bryck transitions from one character to another in a dazzling display of his talents: From teenage girls to cantankerous elderly men, from rapsters to dreamers to flustered public officials, the actor channels a variety of authentic experience; he’s a marvel to behold.”
“Bryck’s tour de force performance is a must see… Bryck uses his voice like a weapon and a tool to defy expectation. He plays gay, straight, male, female, young, old and all those who nestle between the lines of specification with dedication, respect, and love.”
“…honestly one of the realest, best-executed monologues I’ve ever seen. Like Occupy itself, the roller coaster of characters moved me to laugh and scream – often at the same time… The impersonations are inspired.”

“Bryck is a marvelous mimic…”
