Kevin Kicks More Asses
Kevin's impressed the theater critic for the Daily Herald
"If the stage is Richard's, First Folio Shakespeare Festival's exceptional production belongs to artistic associate Kevin McKillip. For the better part of three hours, the lean, charismatic McKillip commands the stage in the titular role of the "rudely stamped... deformed, unfinished, sent before (his) time" Richard. A highly theatrical villain whose misshapen body suggests his twisted soul, he is a compelling figure, wielding words as incisively as other men wield swords and wooing and winning a woman in spite of her hatred for him.
McKillip's sly, glib performance impresses for its physicality (body contorted, he capers nimbly across the stage) and its humor (he uses wisely his smirk). And yet, a flicker of regret or the trace of conscience sometimes clouds his expression, but only for a moment. The pursuit of power allows no time for self-pity and remorse." Richard III runs through August 12 at the First Folio Shakespeare FestivalLabels: Family
