​​"Brian Rott is distinguishing himself quickly as a visionary expanding the  
​​
​limits of traditional stage-bound theatrical performance"  ​LOCAL TROLLEY
​​​​"Amazing and ambitious... breathtakingly beautiful...Why can't all of us approach our bodies and ourselves without being so confined by traditional gender roles?"
Mike Fischer, JOURNAL SENTINEL
Kama Sutra
Bio
Giraffe on Fire
​"Whimsical, disturbing, gorgeous, grotesque, graceful, obscure, funny, but always breathtakingly daring... Milwaukee will probably never see anything again like Giraffe on Fire." 
Jeff Grygny, THEATRE EXAMINER
​​"Americlown is kind of mind-blowing. A satire on American culture in clown form. It's funny. It's beautiful. It's ugly. It's dichotomous. And it's easily one of the most sensational nights at the theatre in Milwaukee so far this season."
​Russ Bickerstaff
, SHEPHERD EXPRESS
Americlown
Dick III
Seagull 3D
Kamikaze Cutesauce: Cosplay Club
​"Kamikaze Cutesauce: Cosplay Club evoked the intimate feeling of an off-off-Broadway production, a triumph for this Milwaukee based company. "
​ Natalie Sacks, CHARGED.FM



​
​"One of the most artful shows I've seen in some time. I laughed more watching  Nutcracker vs. Mouseking than I have at anything in months."

​Matthew Reddin, URBAN MILWAUKEE
Nutcracker vs. Mouseking
Love & Cthulhu
Carnival
Hansel & Gretel
Bottle 99

​"Rich colors, entrancing choreography and artful exhibitionism, an unforgettably outré theatrical experience"

Mcallister Writt, SHEPHERD EXPRESS​
"This is the sort of thing one could expect to see in London, or Barcelona, but not Milwaukee...a complex, thoughtful, funny, and beautiful show."
Jeff Grygny, THEATRE EXAMINER
Bacchanalia
Children of Pac-Men
Kama Sutra
Hamlet
Love & Cthulhu
"Love & Cthulhu is the most ambitious and inventive production Milwaukee has seen in recent years, quite possibly ever...A cauldron that leaves the audience stirred, challenged, and awestruck" LOCAL TROLLEY
"This eclectic group of talent has a synergy that makes this New Yorker wonder if maybe a slower paced city allows for this type of Avante-Garde dynamism to fuse and meld into a weirdly fantastic show."
Jane Sato, THEASY.COM
Paper or Plastic
Three Sisters
Animolecules
Once Upon a Time
Buboes
​​"The physical comedy -- punishing on this troupe and involving prodigious trust and coordination among its members -- is both unlike and better then anything I've seen on a Milwaukee stage this year."
Mike Fischer, JOURNAL SENTINEL

​"A haunting cavalcade of images...a surreal discourse on the digital entertainments we create to combat and contain our cultural experience.."

Selena Milewski, SHEPHERD EXPRESS​
Children of Pac-Men
Standby...
Angst, Horror, & Fun
Zie Magic Flute

​"This production creates a magical world that erases traditional “Magic Flute” expectations and leaves its audience wondering what’s coming next and from which direction."

Elaine Schmidt, JOURNAL SENTINEL

​“So much artistry and magic---an enthralling and intellectual alternative.”
 

WISCONSIN DAILY INDEPENDANT
Halloween Legends & Lore
Robot Cabaret
Merchant of Venice
​
​"...a young, educated group, clearly empowered with both textual analysis and visual splash, and their leader is Brian Rott."

PETESOPHIZING.COM
​​​"The company, lead by Artistic Director Brian Rott, is performing shows unlike anything Milwaukee's used to seeing...Halloween Tree, is a fun, complex, visual treat." 
Danielle McClune, URBAN MILWAUKEE
Halloween Tree
Animal Farm
​​​​"An exhilarating evening of vivid pageantry, colorful characterizations, humor, drama, and big ideas. For a dark satire of human folly in microcosm, it’s amazing how much joy is here."
Jeff Grygny, THEATRE EXAMINER
"Quasimondo's work — all original, devised pieces forged through the crucible of the rehearsal process — often reveals as much or more about our collective hopes, dreams and fears involving race, class and gender as the scores of more conventionally presented plays covering these themes that I see each year."   Mike Fischer,  JOURNAL SENTINEL
