Dallas Thomas
Actress

Don't Talk to the Actors
The Invisible Theatre
Tucson, AZ

"As Jerry and Arlene, the bumpkins from Buffalo, Eric Schumacher and Dallas Thomas are sweet, sincere, malleable and overwhelmed, all at once. Schumacher and Thomas neither let their characters run away from them nor blend in with the wallpaper, and through their control, they manage to hold their own among the flamboyant figures around them."

-James Reel, Tucson Weekly

"What was so terrific about this production is that the whole cast was engaged all the time. While Mitchell's character overacted, Thomas-as-Arlene sat in the corner and made goo goo eyes at him...The actors all had keen timing, allowing the funny bone to be exercised all the more."

Immortal Longings
The Rogue Theatre
Tucson, AZ

"And like any good show, Immortal Longings leaves us wanting more--specifically, full-length productions featuring some of these actresses in the roles they only tease us with here. Dallas Thomas, for starters, is one of the most believable Juliets I've seen: girlish and chattery (even--especially--in the famous balcony scene) and emotionally mercurial."

-James Reel, Tucson Weekly

"Dallas Thomas' love-struck Juliet was bursting with innocence and hormones."

-Kathleen Allen, Arizona Daily Star

"Thomas, as the star-crossed teen holding a bottle of poison, is impressive..."

Wait Until Dark

"Dallas Thomas' performance as Susy is the best reason to see this show. She very precisely presents to us a formerly plucky woman who has now gone fragile; she's full of frustration and self-doubt, yet making a valiant effort to get by, even if she does occasionally give in to bitterness and self-pity. In the end, when she knows her life is in danger, her fear is palpable, but although she may tremble, she never falls apart. There are many contradictory aspects to this Susy Hendrix, but Thomas strings them together into a coherent whole."

-James Reel, Tucson Weekly

"Thomas' performance in a challenging role is more than convincing."

-Adam Daley, Arizona Daily Wildcat

"There are some shining moments, to be sure. Most notably Dallas Thomas as the blind housewife, Susy. She never broke character, always had the halting, feel-your-way stance of the sightless. And she was believable — both as a smart woman who could take on thugs and as a frightened woman who wasn't sure she was going to make it but would fight until the end."

-Kathleen Allen, Arizona Daily Star

Prelude to a Kiss

"In a longer, more complicated, and equally convincing performance, Dallas Thomas begins the play as Rita with big smiles and sparkly eyes...Eschewing the obvious girl-acting-like-a-boy, Thomas adds brusqueness to her voice but only in small amounts. We feel the change and easily suspend disbelief."

-Chuck Graham, Tucson Citizen

"Nate Weisband (who plays Peter) and Dallas Thomas (Rita) portray those young lovers with the exact exuberance and awkwardness required, and it lifts the comedy/fairy tale off to a delectable start."

-Kathleen Allen, Arizona Daily Star

"As Peter and Rita, Nate Weisband and Dallas Thomas are an irresistible couple; they have tremendous chemistry together, the sort that makes you really care about their relationship from the beginning and root for them to be reunited, one way or another by the end."

-James Reel, Tucson Weekly

"All three sisters respond by creating characters who feel like real people, even as their situations verge on the surreal."

-Chuck Graham,Tucson Citizen

"Jillian Courtney, Natalie Sutherland and Dallas Thomas had an easy rapport with one another ... They each took their roles and owned them."

-Kathleen Allen, Arizona Daily Star
