"....in rousing renditions put over with energy and style by the spectacularly talented three-man cast, Kevin R. Free, Andre Garner, and Rodney Hicks."
-NYTheatre.com

"Rodney Hicks is Philly, a mix of Detroit's city flash and Memphis' raw energy who puts force and personality into songs like "Give Me Just a Little More Time" and "Me and Mrs. Jones."
-The New York Post

"These soulful chaps know what this show needs them to do, and they do it well. Interestingly, the singers are named for their home towns -- Detroit (Andre Garner), Memphis (Kevin R. Free), and Philly (Rodney Hicks) -- thereby representing different areas of the United States that fostered African-American music."
-TheatreMania.com

"The real stars here are Detroit, Memphis, and Philly--Andre Garner, Kevin R. Free, Rodney Hicks. These three performers are simply wonderful. Each has a great voice, unique style and a winning personality."

HAIR!...

“That said, it's also filled with delights. Rodney Hicks did a terrific "Colored Spade", and enlivened the stage throughout the evening.”
-AISLE SAY Seattle

"The fabulous Hicks, who dances like the love child of Prince and James Brown, tears into "Colored Spade," a tune so audacious in its subversion of racist clichis, it's hard to imagine it being written today.”
-Seattle Times Review : Entertainment & the Arts: Monday, April 15, 2002

“Countering the sweetness of songs like "Good Morning, Starshine" are songs like "Colored Spade," which Rodney Hicks delivers brilliantly as Hud, an African-American who uses every unmentionable racial slur in his powerful indictment of racism.”
-Herald Writer

“Further cheers are assuredly due to Rodney Hicks as Hud with a smashing vocal on "Colored Spade."
-Talking Broadway.com "Cast standouts included Cheyenne Jackson as Berger, the leader of the pack; Louis Hobson, as Claude, the wanna-be Brit; Rodney Hicks, as the bold Jimi Hendrix clone Hud; Kathleen M. Young in the role of the teenybopper Crissy; Lisa Estridge-Gray as Dionne; and Ben Schrader in the role of Woof."

Kudzu

“Standouts in the cast are the endearing James Ludwig as the title character, Kudzu Dubose, a very animated Rodney Hicks as his friend Maurice (his dance skills getting much better exposure here than they did in the virtually dance-less original Broadway company of Rent)”
-CurtainUp DC Report: March 1998

Letters From Nam...

“Also impressive is Rodney Hicks, as a medic who has the most trouble accepting or even understanding the reason for this devastating war. He makes those feelings especially poignant leading the song ‘I Don’t Understand This War’ and is especially sensitive in the moving song ‘One Red Flower.’ Incidentally, he moves remarkably well, especially in his antics in the rousing ‘Saigon Tea’ number.”
-Paul McMahon, Bay Window

Scrooge...

“Rent and "NYPD Blue" Rodney Hicks is featured as the "jive talking, jitterbugging Ghost of Christmas." The show's dazzling special effects include tap dancing, glow-in-the-dark skeletons and a glittering Toyland dream ballet in which dolls, toys, a teddy bear and even Christmas stockings and packages magically come to life.”
-Playbill.com

Likewise, Hicks is a serious stitch as he snakes around the stage conjuring up various magical moments. He leads the cast in grand style through the showstopping "Send Him Down," in which the townsfolk reveal just how much they despise the old miser.
-By Lee Williams, Houston Press Dec 16, 1999

Godspell

“Rodney Hicks as the Jesus-figure prophet uses frenetic energy and a colorful voice to justify realistically the challenging role. He and magnetically sexy Luke Darnell, as a drug dealing Judas, take a particularly skillful and entertaining turn in "All For the Best."
