"And hats off (well, more than hats...) to the pint-sized, but impressively chiseled Jonathan Hardin as rival stripper Buddy 'Keno' Walsh, who athletically removes his clothing after the audience barely settles into their seats."

-Kyle Christopher West, Broadway World Dallas

Review for Broken: The Musical

 

"Jonathan Hardin, as Jason, is a true pleasure to watch. His vocals are powerful, his acting strong and precise, and his presence on stage is wonderful. He portrays the supporter of Mona with a unique, delicate intimacy. In his duet, 'Why Do I Feel Helpless,' his vocals shine and are truly moving."

- Richard Blake, The Column
