Broadway World Interview with Jacqueline Sydney

Ms. Sydney . . .  in Geena’s fleeting moments of consciousness, she delivers.
(Ben Brantley, The New York Times)
​

Sydney was incredible. Geena is at the place where cancer makes speech difficult, but Sydney makes the character a fully participating piece of the ensemble.  We know she is listening and we know what she is feeling   I found myself often checking in to see what Geena was doing because it felt like a part of the journey not to be missed.
 (Margret Echeverria, Front Row Center)
​

 Sydney deserves an award for simple, mute endurance, as well her inevitably show-stealing interjections.
(Tim Teeman, The Daily Beast)
​

Sydney, for her part, is tasked primarily with reacting and not reacting through a combination of blinks, head turns, and sheet shuffles—and they're just about all mesmerizing. Not because she's doing anything special, but because she isn't: Her Geena is simply living (or rather dying). . . Sydney is so successful. (Matthew Murray, Talkin’ Broadway)

Unembalmed
by Joe Byers
Emerging Artists Theatre

​Sydney, as the grieving mother, is remarkable. She effortlessly cycles through the disjointed pain and anger that Mrs. Dockery feels.
(Byrne Harrison)
​

The script has a lot of emotional honesty, and the cast is up to the challenge, especially Sydney, who quivers with frightening intensity.    (broadwayworld.com)

Machinal
by Sophie Treadwell
​Synapse Theatre Company

Though Jacqueline Sydney is featured only in one scene (as Helen’s mother), she makes an unmistakable impression, and seems capable of aging decades just by the way she stands in the light or turns her head, making her all the more startling and unrecognizable when she appears later as other characters.           (Talkin’ Broadway)

A Homecoming
(Our Lady of Queens)
​by Joseph Beck
New York Int'l Fringe Festival
