"Michael Walker masters the tongue-twisting 'We Beseech Thee'"- Drew Sterwald, The News-Press

"Walker cannot be beat with 'We Beseech Thee'"-Marilyn Carpenter, Herald Tribune

"Walker really knocked our socks off with a rockin version of 'We Beseech Thee'"-Marsha Wagner, Islander

"Walker's rendition of 'We Beseech Thee' was nothing short of amazing"-Anne Bellew, Breeze Newspaper
The Full Monty-Little Theatre on the Square
"(Dave is) played by Michael Walker, a hefty talent who is nimble as a whip on foot and in technique."-Dan Hagen, New Progress












Anything Goes-Little Theatre on the Square

"Best of all is Walker as a handy gangster disguised as a clergyman. Walker wraps the audience around his finger."-Dan Hagen, News Progress













The Full Monty-Broadway Palm

"The cast; amazing.  Nathan Albert and Michael Walker had the best platonic male chemistry since Oscar and Felix.  Someone PLEASE write these guys a sitcom NOW so they can save the wasteland called television"- Ryan Ward, Theatre Review

"And Michael Walker runs Plachy a close second as the overweight Dave Bukatinsky"-Anne Bellew, Breeze Newspapers

"Michael Walker shows depth as Jerry's bear of a best friend.  His struggles with low self-esteem give the actor more to play than just a target for easy cracks." Drew Sterwald, News-Press


Reviews:
The Full Monty-Broadway Palm West


"The biggest charmer, literally and figuratively, is the 'husky' actor, Michael Walker, whose self-deprecating warmth creates the show's only fully rounded character-pun intended."-Kerry Lengel, The Arizona Republic

"Walker stole the show as far as I am concerned. He was near perfect as the conflicted, loveable, teddy bear of a man with the beer belly he adored." Paula Shulak, Goldfish Publishers.
Godspell-Little Theatre on the Square

"A couple of vocals qualify as thrilling-Walker and Betts singing 'We Beseech Thee'-Dan Hagen, News Progess
Hairspray National Tour-'08

"Michael Walker...was having such fun it was infectious...his work on the charm song of the show,  the duet 'You're Timeless to Me' with Dan Ferretti as the love of her life, is delightful.-Brad Hathaway, potomacstages.com


"Playing Tracy's frumpy-to-fabulous mom Edna at the Sunday matinee was Michael Walker.  Walker became better and better as Edna grew more and more self-assured, hitting his stride in the duet on "You're Timeless to Me" with Dan Ferretti as Edna's husband"-Kristina Dorsey, The Day-New London, CT


"But the show stoppers, literally, were Michael Walker as Tracy's uber-sized mom, Edna, and slender Dan Ferretti as her loving dad, Wilbur.  The show came to a literal halt."-Scot Whited, The Pueblo Chieftan-Pueblo, CO


"Michael Walker shined as Edna Turnblad...especially in 'You're Timeless To Me' a sweet ballad with her onstage husband"-Dave Richards, GoErie.com


""Michael Walker, who plays Tracy's mom Edna, is another suprise twist.  A cross dresser of considerable girth, Walker displays a dry sense of humor and a worrisome wit.  Walker is a perfect compliment for her zany husband Wilbur played by Dan Ferretti."-Kelli Taverna, Broadwayworld.com
