Pierce receives excellent reviews for The Most Happy Fella

"The brassy Broadway aspects of the show are enhanced by a few breakout performances, with Pierce Brandt charming as the wimpy Herman..."
-- The Bay Area Reporter

"Krista Wigle's sassy Cleo and Pierce Brandt's happily passive Herman deliver some bright comic moments." -- San Francisco Chronicle

"...the production was solidly cast from the minor roles through to Pierce Brandt's delightful and athletic Herman." -- The Huffington Post

"...standout performers include Pierce Brandt as Herman..." "One of the most exciting moments in the production is a vocal quartet in the middle of the first act, 'Standing on the Corner,' sung by ranch hands Herman (Pierce Brandt), Jake (Nicholas Bang), Clem (Stefan Miller) and Al (Johann Reed). Each boasts years of experience in operatic performance, and it shows. Backed by a stellar orchestra under the gifted baton of long-time Festival conductor Bryan Nies, the sound is exquisite. The number drew enthusiastic applause on opening night last weekend." -- The Benicia Herald
