MICHAEL COSTANTINO

BARITONE &MUSICIAN

Costantino gets an A+ on all aspects of the Lord Chancellor. He is articulate, smart, and always in touch with his presentation. The guy never misses a beat.

Opera Metro

Robin Oakapple is deftly played by Michael Costantino... rich in voice and focused in character... he added an updated set of verses at the end... quite funny and on target.

  • Costantino... was the hit of the evening. (Papageno)

    The Berkshire Eagle

  • Sly, but charming, Costantino handled the role with obvious skill. (Malatesta)

    The Norwalk Hour

  • Mr. Costantino is a capable singer and an inspired scene-stealer. (Colline)

    The Ann Arbor News

  • Festooned with a liberal wit, a high metabolism, and a "type A" streak, the stage is a natural outlet for Costantino’s ridiculousness.

Ridgefield Arts & Leisure

As the opera opens, a thin figure stretches out his arm in an agony of impatience. The pose is held through long orchestral measures. The tension vibrates.

This company had no such inhibitions. Fully capable of performing the flowing Donizetti lines, the voices were equally comfortable being raucous, imperious or anguished. This takes both courage and intelligence, qualities that this cast has in full measure.

Michael Costantino was excellent in the leading role. His Pasquale was a knot of desire and frustration, collapsing on the floor in humiliation, comically raging at the mounting pile of extravagances.
