What the Critics Say -
Phantom of the Opera -
Rob Shearer, a veteran of many professional performances. His powerful voice lent an eerie presence to his phantom. Ray Swenson
The company gave us a cornucopia of talent to appreciate, a magical Christmas gift!
The leads, Robert Shearer (Phantom), Anna Stephens (Christine) and Nathan Kneen (Raoul), transfixed the audience with magnificent balanced vocal performances in solos, duets and trios. Jay McKee
Secret Garden
...the outstanding performers hands down were Lauren Lee Innis-Youren as Lily and Robert Shearer as Archibald. Their chemistry was perfect, their emotions were felt and the vocals equally chilling. Trent Sellars
Rob Shearer blew me away with his emotional connection to the Character. I was feeling every ounce of his pain and anguish
and grief. Beautiful voice and total embodiment of the Character I thought he was masterful. Loved it! Linda Hall
Wicked
Among the many highlights of the show was a refreshingly honest portrayal of The Wizard of Oz (Robert Shearer). Often played up as a bumbling old man who doesn’t quite know what he’s doing, Shearer played him as a functional alcoholic megalomaniac who genuinely believed in what he was doing for the people of Oz. A part that can so easily become two dimensional was given humour, pathos, by Shearer who at times made The Wizard a genuinely terrifying figure, and at other times made him the curiously drunken uncle you might invite to Christmas for a laugh. His scenes with Madame Morrible were quite lovely in their maliciousness. Shane Webb
Robert Shearer’s Wizard was ebullient, not too nasty when his evil intent had been revealed, and built “Wonderful” into a good old-fashioned musical-comedy showpiece. Peter Pinne
