“The stranger, Marion Welch (an effective Eric Rice) with his influence on Carl becomes the engine of the plot. As the new day dawns, will Carl join his friends as they head off, very likely to their deaths on a battlefield in a strange land?”
- Jon Sobel, BlogCritics.org
FAT PIG
“.... And poor Tom—Eric Rice makes him needy, insecure, and miserable.”
- V.I. Hambleton, Arts SF (www.artssf.com)
“[Rice] nailed the guy, one of those infuriating people who are so far from their image of themselves, they give out waves of mixed signals....”
- Marianne Messina, San Jose MetroActive (www.metroactive.com)
LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT

- Marianne Messina, San Jose MetroActive (www.metroactive.com)
“Eric Rice also gives a rock-solid performance as eldest son James Tyrone Jr., an alcoholic rake who has bitterly disappointed his father.”
- Keith Kreitman, The Oakland Tribune
“... they quickly settle into the genetic insanity of the Tyrone family to create memorable versions of the haunted quartet.... the anguish of the sons is vivid and well-played.”
- Pat Craig, Contra Costa Times
A BEAUTIFUL HOME FOR THE INCURABLE
“...a first-rate audience-winning cast. As Bunny, Rice projects a persona controlled by effort but interrupted intermittently by panic and mania.”
- Keith Kreitman, The Oakland Tribune
A FAIR COUNTRY
“Alec (Eric Rice), suffers his fool of a mother less gladly....a pleasure to watch.... Alec's smoldering indignation got on my nerves... a testament to Rice's ability to play that troubled character so convincingly.”
- Ben Marks, Palo Alto Weekly
SIGNIFICANT OTHERS
“Eric Rice, as the most successful of the three friends, turns in the clearest performance of the night.”
- Michael Scott Moore, SF Weekly
“...The Lee Hartgrave Fame Award goes to Eric Rice as the most intriguing actor in an ensemble play.”
- Lee Hartgrave, BeyondChron.org
