Noises Off with Keegan Theatre

“All nine actors in Noises Off have mastered this insanely comically intricate script. Some favorite bits include Gary DuBreuil as Tim, the Stage Manager. Stage managers form the backbone of a show, but Tim (and his backbone) are overworked. Often using just body language and a couple of feet, DuBreuil’s Tim anticipates every performer’s need, director’s want, and his own desperate longing for sleep.”

— Mary Lincer, Broadway World

Richard the Second with Brave Spirits Theatre

“DuBreuil’s Richard was so perfectly realized, with all the insecurities and mercurial changes of heart and mind vividly brought to life, that I regret having wasted my time bothering to watch one of the ‘greats’ [Sir Derek Jacobi on the West End].”

— Andrew Walker White, DC Metro Theater Arts 2020 Staff Favorites: Outstanding Performances

“DuBreuil portrays Richard’s autocratic and devil-may-care attitude with flair. He excels in Richard’s monologues. As he becomes more and more lost and alone, our sympathy for him grows. He goes from being a Sun King to a King of Snow, melting in the rays of Bolingbroke’s splendor.”

— Sophia Howes, DC Metro Theater Arts

“Gary DuBreuil’s Richard is a fascinating study, a young monarch whose petulance and thirst for blood is tempered by his self-deprecating sense of humor. Shakespeare gives DuBreuil numerous opportunities to draw the audience to his side, and he succeeds in generating far more sympathy for Richard’s plight than the historical figure deserved.”

— Andrew White, Broadway World

“In the title role, Gary DuBreuil captures both the impish arrogance of his kingship and the late-arriving vulnerability and self-awareness as he comes to terms with his failures, it’s a crucial role and DuBreuil pulls it off with style.”

— John Geoffrion, DC Theatre Scene

Hands on a Hardbody with Keegan Theatre

“[Don and Janis’s] song together, “If She Don’t Sleep” (beautifully sung by Valerie Adams Rigsbee and Gary DuBreuil), is a tenderly moving evocation of empathy, mutuality, and reciprocity in a marriage.”

— John Stoltenberg, DC Metro Theater Arts

The Ugly One with Nu Sass Productions

“The acting style is wonderfully broad, and DuBreuil in particular brings to the role of Lette an antic physicality and facial plasticity that keeps getting funnier.”

— John Stoltenberg, DC Metro Theater Arts

As You Like It with Prince George’s Shakespeare in the Parks

“And most importantly, thank the gods for Gary DuBreuil who takes Touchstone, who can be the least funny clown outside of Stephen King’s Pennywise, to a place where Shakespeare’s twisty puns can be laughed at by contemporary audiences.”

— Alan Katz, DC Theatre Scene

Much Ado About Nothing with NextStop Theatre

“…and in an interesting bit of double-casting Gary DuBreuil convinces as both the diabolical Borachio and the insightful Friar. In DuBreuil’s case the difference between servant and priest is crystal clear.”

— Andrew White, Broadway World

“The acting in this show is superb. Even the smaller parts were expertly played, such as Gary DuBreuil’s incredibly engaging Borachio.”

— RK Pendergrass, DC Theatre Scene

The Maid’s Tragedy with Brave Spirits Theatre

“…there’s real pathos in a moment that reveals the disconsolate noblewoman leaning against her father (Gary DuBreuil) as he tries to comfort her.”

— Celia Wren, The Washington Post

“Calianax, Aspatia’s father and keeper of the fort at Rhodes, fills [the role of cynical clown], and Gary DuBreuil masters the part.”
