Mark Baratelli: Solo Musical Improv

About Me

"Mark Baratelli is a freakin' comic genius!"
- NYTheatre.com
"The versatile Mark Baratelli captures just the right period sound in his nasal, reedy delivery of the Berlin rarity "Pack Up Your Sins and Go to the Devil," and surprises in the second act's "The Girl That I Marry" with a robust Alfred Drake-like baritone."
- SanDiego.com
"Your voice is amazing. Your improv is amazing."
- San Francisco Improv Festival Producer Shaun Landry
"Had the audience captivated from the moment Mark hit the stage"
- Dirty South Improv Festival Artistic Director Zach Ward
"Mark Baratelli's... cabaret set slapped a huge, silly smile on my face"
- Show Showdown
"To witness Mark Baratelli in person is a completely overwhelming experience."
- TalkinBroadway.com
"Baratelli has an impressively showy singing voice and a nicely warped imagination"
- Orlando Sentinel
"The songs were good, the singing was very good and the storytelling was fantastic"
- Orlando Sentinel
"Everyone's favorite diva"
-Rob Ward
"Mark is a star in his own right. Every word, every musical phrase...practically seamless."
- BloggingFringe.com
"Alternately hysterical and uncomfortable, Mark Baratelli’s show is at least as entertaining as the art form he ridicules."
- Archiculture
"Mark Baratelli...was cutecutecutecutecute."
- Kevin R Free
"Baratelli’s mind-boggling improvised songwriting technique insures no two shows will be alike."
-Scottie Campbell, Watermark Magazine
My favorite review ever: "Mark Baratelli is a mime who sings and acts, but mimes best. He is a dancer who moves his voice around, sometimes in one range, sometimes in another. Often he is off-pitch."
- Berkshire Bright Focus
