"Truly,, a performance you must not miss is Michael Dalberg as our 'antagonist.' ... You will be engulfed in Dalberg's hypnotic stage-power and laser-focus."
- Chicago Theatre Review

"With amazing skill and alacrity, Kade Cox, Jake Baker, Michael Dalberg, and Emerson Ellis play a myriad of supporting roles... They are gems - poised and proper and brazen at the same time."​
- Around the Town Chicago

"The funniest trio is certainly Michael Dalberg as Stephano, Joel Thompson as Trinculo, and Jennifer Mohr as Caliban, all of whom form a drunken party enjoying the shipwreck’s barrels of wine. Dalberg in particular is one of those who is truly fluent in Shakespeare and knows how to deliver his words with comedic timing."
