As Richard, Acacia Danielson takes her character from an arrogant, arbitrary, sometimes frivolous, king to the reflective, deeper prisoner by show’s end. [...] Danielson portrays this character arc movingly, in the process delivering Shakespeare’s words with energy and clarity, as in the “death of kings” speech.
— Bob Ashby, DC Metro Theater Arts
Acacia Danielson’s Pisanio [...] has a quiet restrained strength that presents the most nuanced take I’ve ever seen on the character.

Acacia Danielson is an animated and endearing Ophelia.

Power-walking guru Riley (Acacia Danielson) takes to posting her routes online, as she literally collects followers in the hope that her visibility both as a local and internet celebrity will ensure her continued existence.
— Ian Thal, Washington City Paper
Acacia Danielson is superb as the titular character. Given that this is one of Synetic’s wordless productions, Danielson communicates the Queen’s aristocratic hauteur through a perfectly calibrated sneer and commanding physical presence.
