Changelings Magus KempVortex TheatreRudy Ramirez"Travis Bedard is Magus Kemp. None dare call him Professor, and Kemp warns us that he being him is like you being you on a quarter-tab of mescaline at all times. Bedard embodies Kemp with the apparent glee of one who has finally found a role he sought for years. Hardy and Bedard create a character of whom the producers of the movie Ghostbusters would be deeply envious." - David Glen Robinson"And while there really are no weak links in this talented group, standout performances are also given by Ray, McLemore, and Travis Bedard." - Elissa Russell

The Crapstall Street Boys Praeger / CompanyTrouble PuppetConnor Hopkins"Bedard shows particular glee in voicing the brutally manipulative factory foreman, the only character with extensive, coherent monologues – all of them appalling." - David Glen Robinson"Travis Bedard provides excellent vocals for the greedy factory foreman" - Cate BloukeBroadway WorldAustin ChronicleBob Kinney
Nursery CrimesOld McDonald / Officer BlueLast Act Theatre CompanyWill Hollis SniderTravis Bedard is fantastic as both Peep's slightly effeminate, Colonel Sanders-esque father and as the stern police officer, Guy Blue. - Jeff DavisCTX Live Theatre

The PillowmanKaturian7 Towers TheatreChristina Dennehy"Travis Bedard gives a completely unexpected performance. While Bedard often plays the more intimidating and primeval of characters (Lucifer in Doctor Faustus, Titus in Titus Andronicus), it's fun to see him play against his usual type. It's a treat to see Bedard start the evening as a nervous, neurotic, shriveling mess of a man and slowly progress to a strong, confident hero." - Jeff DavisAustin ChronicleBob Kinney

 Tis Pity She’s a WhoreFriar / Cardinal / Bergetto7 Towers TheatreChristina Dennehy"The rest of those on stage slip in, out and through the remaining characters with shifts of costume, altered stances, changed voices, and above all visible and highly credible changes of presence and motivation. Travis Bedard is almost ridiculously good at this -- but then, he has three characters so vastly different from one another that if he wasn't obliged to keep his abundant beard and shining pate you just might not recognize him from one to another." - Michael MeigsAustin Chronicle
 Titus Andronicus Titus AndronicusLast Act Theatre CompanyBen McLemore"Travis Bedard is a stolid, strong Titus, dangerous throughout but never more so than when his enemies think him deluded in his glaucous fury." - Michael Meigs
 Story SeekersStoryteller Exchange ArtistsRachel Wiese"Stealing the stage, however, is Travis Bedard as the Storyteller. [...] Bedard seems tailor-made for the role, playing the mix of menace and fatherlyness with skill, his imposing figure looming over the actors, he resonant voice booming across the field. He lumbers stately across the lawn like a refined beast, popping out at random moments, creating some truly horrifying moments." - Ryan JohnsonCTX Live TheatreAustin Chronicle
