“Theatergoers can only
hope to see & hear more
of Patricia Comstock.”
 
Dover Post, for Laurey in Oklahoma!
 
 

amusing as ‘Dymphna, a Slut.’
 
TheaterMania, for Prince Trevor 




Comstock is an absolute marvel
...From the moment she comes charging out
on stage, she is filled with 
fiery rage and defiance...
she maintains that steadfast level of 
intensity and strength
even as she is being ‘tamed’ down.

Oberlin Review, for Kate in Taming of the Shrew 
 
 
 

intriguing physical comedy
 
New York Blade, for Stephano in The Tempest




intrepid...
create[s] an atmosphere of
inspired lunacy.
 
The New York Times, for Penelope/Seamen
    in Homer's Odyssey in Puppets
 
 
 
 
Patricia has a beautiful voice...
She was a good whore; even her
eyes sparkled and beckoned.

—Oberlin Review, for Whore in Hello Again

The effect of Hecuba's performance is doubled,
if not tripled, by the chorus.
The chorus is arguably the main character...
Constantly in motion... They respond to every act, every word,
and they do not flag. The emotion expressed by the chorus
never seems tired or impersonal
...as if they all have wounds they rip open
every few minutes.
Oberlin Review, for Chorus Leader in
    Women of Troy

Some of the works were truly a success.
Excerpts from Why We Have a Body, for example,
were simple and direct...
Read by Patricia Comstock... Chafee's
words sunk deep into the audience
as if the speakers were referring to their own lives.
