"It can be a daunting task to toe the line between playing up a character’s confidence without sacrificing likability, but Hunter threads that needle with the same precision and attention to detail that crafted his vibrant finery...

Hunter Semrau packs an emotional punch at the halfway point of the show with 'Close Every Door.'" — WKML

"Hunter Semrau is outstanding as Joseph." — The Triangle Review
