"Collins brings the physical and vocal imagination of a master character actor to the role of Jim. His rhythms are so unpredictable that his tale – it’s the one about the open grave – seems to leap off the stage."
--Steve Vineberg for Critics At Large

"The four actors offer remarkable, sensitive portrayals that break your heart. Peggy Pharrell Wilson, Joey Collins, Rodney Hicks and Darlene Hope are never less than remarkable. The individuals and their stories not only

Brecht in Exile, Part II
The Good Soul of Setzuan
by Bertolt Brecht
Irondale Ensemble Project
Brooklyn, NY
In the title role, Collins’ Galileo fulfills every idealist potential of Brecht’s valiantly flawed protagonist. Vulnerable and tortured, yet inspired and unshakably driven — a little mad, too — Collins’ portrayal is a first-rate, fully-embodied turn at the tragic hero. When the science and philosophy that fuel this play is laid to rest, what we ought to do with Galileo’s humanity — his recantation done purely out of fear, faced with certain death by the Inquisition’s torturers — is a question that haunts this play till its conclusion. Collins’ performance gives a brilliant answer. -- Michael Appler, The Theatre Times

at Berkshire Theatre Festival
directed by Eric Hill
"Collins shied away from the cliché of Jerry – he refused to make him a stereotypical mentally ill person, or scream to show his intensity. His Jerry was layered, inscrutable; just when you thought you had a handle on what he was doing, he’d flip the script and come at it from another angle. He was a wonder to watch, full of energy and fire."
-- Amy Durant, The Alt
