"...James DeMarse was one of the three founders (along with Sam Schacht & Michelle Bouchard) of the 42nd St Workshop. I was very fortunate to be able to chat with James in his apartment in the Upper West Side and learn about the creation of the process of new play development in New York City. And from our discussion, I've produced my next ANIMATED NEW YORKERS." - Jack Feldstein

Leon Addison Brown, Charles Turner, Henry Hodges and James DeMarse
“He is an extraordinary actor with gifts in humor and irony that are exceedingly rare. His work as George...truly illuminated an aspect of the play I feel was never seen before.” Arthur Penn
"DeMarse's lines are so profoundly believable that they conjure up a man one has met in the past." (American Arts on Slouching Toward the Millenium)
"DeMarse with a rubbery face, tongue hanging out, eyes bulging body bent over, arms hanging loose, convinces us beyond any reasonable doubt is the forlorn creature, and it's worth the price of admission just to see him." Lucy Komisar, American Reporter
“...just can’t get enough of DeMarse whose adroit performances throughout keep the evening buoyant. Time Out on Slouching Toward the Millenium
