Shakespeare

AS YOU LIKE IT (ROSALIND) - TheatreWorks

* Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle Nomination - Best Actress...

* Drama-Logue Award for Performance as Rosalind...

AS YOU LIKE IT - Rheingold Theatre, London

"...featuring dazzling Australia actress, Rebecca Dines as the lovelorn Rosalind" -  Eric Aubert

"...a wonderfully intelligent Rosalind." - Rosemary Harris, TIME OUT

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING - 2000 & 2004  - Lake Tahoe Shakespeare  Festival

 "...light-hearted fare can work terrifically, especially when the leading lady is a strong, blunt and feisty Katharine Hepburn-like actress, and when the leading man wraps wit, tactlessness, devotion and stubbornness into such a tight package that you love hating him but also wouldn't mind marrying him.   Those two actors are Rebecca Dines as Beatrice and Dan Hiatt as Benedick...and their banter is so engrossing, especially in this version of the play, that another hour of it would have been enjoyable.”  - Miranda Jesch, Reno News & Review

LOVES LABOUR'S LOST  -   (Rosaline) - San Francisco Shakespeare Festival

“...Rebecca Dines, her eyes skeptically rolling under a pretty crimped hairdo, is his fitting foil as Rosaline. Dines brings a wonderful teasing intelligence to the part..” - Steven Winn, San Francisco Chronicle

LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST - (Princess of France) - Lake Tahoe Shakespeare  Festival

"...an assured Princess of France and delivers the production's most affecting performance. When word arrives that her father has died, that the fun is over, and that she must retreat to duty, the mood shift is touching without disengaging the overall gaiety of the play. It was a marvelously directed and acted moment."  - Tahoe Bonanza

MACBETH  (Lady Macbeth) - Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival

“...a clearly defined Lady Macbeth, breathtaking, moving, delicate and almost fragile...the antithesis of the bloodthirsty amazon...chilling and perverse.” - David Jacobson, VillageLIfe.com

“...a lithe seductive Lady Macbeth.”  - Marcus Crowder, Sacramento Bee

THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR  (Mistress Ford) - Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival

“... Rebecca Dines as Ford & Karyn Casl as Page play the merry wives of the title, with the droll Dines a particularly effective foil to Wright (Falstaff)...”  - Jeff Hudson, News & Review

TWELFTH NIGHT  (Olivia) - Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival

"(Olivia)...played with the requisite dignity, comedic timing and perfectly by a poised and lovely Rebecca Dines."  - Nevada Events

A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM  (Titania/Hippolyta) - Menlo Park, 1990

“Dines handles the verse with an easy naturalism that loses none of its music and executes her athletic movements with queenly grace.”  - Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Examiner

ROMEO AND JULIET  (Juliet)  - Shakespeare by the Sea - Sydney, 1987

“... Rebecca Dines is brilliant as the very young and innocent Juliet hopelessly enmeshed in a maelstrom of hate and violence...her performance is hauntingly touching. It is carefully balanced between moments of newly awakened passion and child-like fragility.   - Julie Moffatt, Time Out
