REVIEWS

Bang!Bang!Bang!
"...quiet, focused Christopher Burris..."
Margo Jefferson
The New York Times

"Christopher Burris plays the unfortunate young man, mind and body, with
great conviction."
Martin Denton
nytheatre.com

Time to Burn
"Resonance Ensemble assembled a crack cast; standouts
include...Christopher Burris as Alejandro..."

Caresses
"...played with variety and surprise by Christopher Burris."
Paul Hagen
FringeNYC

Six Degrees of Separation
"Christopher Burris steps into the character of Paul like stepping into a body
suit. We know that level of evasive maneuvering that keeps  Paul alive
operates seemingly without notice. Burris relays these aspects of Paul's
nature as if they were his own."
Alan R. Hall
The Chapel Hill News

"Christopher Burris is nothing less than charming as Paul, a sweet but
ultimately irresponsible young man who doesn't see the difference between
his con games and the ones he notices around him. Burris gets the notes of
desire and desperation right..."
Byron Woods
