Reviews
"Pablo Rodarte's performance as the mad, insect-eating Renfield was a masterpiece of characterization." - Albuquerque Journal, Jennifer Noyer (Nov. 3, 2004)
"Another highlight of the evening was a scene at the sanitarium where Pablo Rodarte's performance as the mad Renfield in a cage, quivered with a believable sense of evil possession." - The Sunday Journal, Jennifer Noyer (Oct. 14, 2001)
"Pablo Rodarte perpetuated the fierce macho image throughout with stronger stamps, and ever more haughty bearing." - Dance Magazine, Julinda Lewis
"A man facing death is seduced by a deathlike lover in the second duet, whose characters were etched in acid by Pablo Rodarte and Carlota Santana." - New York Times, Jennifer Dunning
Doña Flor and Her Two Husbands. "Dr. Teodoro, Flor’s timid second husband, was played by the genial Pablo Rodarte" - New York Times, Jennifer Dunning
"The tall and slender, Pablo Rodarte plays a potential suitor who watches Maria from the corner of the stage. Whenever the pair makes eye contact, her movements take on a renewed energy." - Journal Dance Writer, Santa Fe, Carole Mazur

"In contrast, Rodarte seems a pristine classicist, his feet purring out an evenly escalating cascade of heel taps." - The Tribune, Berkeley, CA, Janice Ross
"Rodarte has the same proud bearing set off by expressively dramatic hand and arm gestures and a long-legged, lunging stride that gobbles up space." Minnesota Star & Tribune, Mike Steele
