"Played to perfection, Tom Kenaston's Cosme has the audience spell-bound with his narrative from the first note to the grand finale. Kenaston is a triple threat in this production. He acts, sings and plays the piano with such ease and grace one hardly realizes he has left the piano and has involved himself in the plot, only to slip back onto the bench and emerge himself in another song. One could rarely take your eyes off of him. Vocally, Kenaston's 'Violets for Your Furs' was truly his masterpiece.."
- Jon Putzke, The Theatre Observatory, in a review of Riverside Theatre's production of Souvenir.
