actor ª writer ª spy

 

January 2010: Tina starred in a sold-out run of Rough Sketch by Shawn Nacol at 59 East 59th. This Rude Mechanicals production was directed by Ian Morgan.

"Tina Benko is phenomenal." (Larry Harbison, On the Aisle)

"These two actors are up to every minute of the task, especially Ms. Benko, whose performance is so nuanced she almost appears to be spinning it into thread while you watch." (Tulis McCall, New York Theatre Guide)

"Benko’s Barbara is the epitome of awkward charm... The genius of casting Benko is that despite Barb’s slowly revealed, outrageously dark worldview, Benko makes every statement ring true. The audience at the performance I attended murmured to itself in stunned agreement." (Mark Peikert, NY Press)

"Tina Benko is marvelous, as able with physical slapstick as with complicated philosophical diatribes. One can easily picture her spitting out Oscar Wilde to its best advantage. Her paranoia is palpable. She practically vibrates with barricaded feeling. Her comic delivery is sterling." (Alix Cohen, Woman Around Town)
