What critics are saying about Jordan Sidfield
As Perchik in "Fiddler on the Roof"
"Hodel strikes up a rapport with penniless scholar and revolutionary Perchik, played with sweet, comic fervor by Jordan Sidfield."
LISA JENSEN, Good Times Weekly
http://goodtimes.sc/santa-cruz-arts-entertainment/review-cabrillo-stages-fiddler-roof/
"Second daughter Hodel falls for a bookish Bolshevik named Perchik, acted with lots of drive and comic commitment by Jordan Sidfield."
-PHILIP PEARCE, Performing Arts Monterey Bay
http://performingartsmontereybay.com/fiddler-on-the-roof/
"As Perchik, the revolutionary young man from Kiev who tutors Tevye’s younger daughters and falls in love with Hodel, Jordan Sidfield captivates with intelligence and charm."
-JOANNE ENGELHARDT, Santa Cruz Sentinel

As Harry the Horse in "Guys and Dolls":
"The singing-dancing ensemble shines in B. Modern’s lush costumes, with Jordan Sidfield’s very funny Harry the Horse another standout."
-LISA JENSEN, Good Times Weekly
http://www.gtweekly.com/index.php/santa-cruz-arts-entertainment-lifestyles/live-events-music-theater-santa-cruz/7070-doll-parts.html
As an Ancestor in "Addams Family":
"Their male counterparts C.J. Blankenship, Brian Herndon, and Jordan Sidfield are no slouches when it comes to dance, particularly Jordan Sidfield who is a fabulous dancer."
-RICHARD CONNEMA, Talkin Broadway http://www.talkinbroadway.com/regional/sanfran/s1427.html
As Abraham in "Altar Boyz":
"How an earnest Jewish boy gets thrown into the mix makes for an interesting angle, and Jordan Craig Sidfield is that sincere young man, Abraham, yarmulke firmly sitting atop his head."
-JOANNE ENGELHARDT, Santa Cruz Sentinal http://www.santacruzsentinel.com/article/ZZ/20140702/NEWS/140708064
As Charley/The Dauphin in "Du Barry Was a Lady":
"Jordan Sidfield is uproarious playing The Dauphin. He reminds me of a young Jerry Lewis."
-RICHARD CONNEMA http://forallevents.info/reviews/a-hilarious-production-of-cole-porters-du-berry-was-a-lady/
"On the other side of the spectrum is Jordan Sidfield’s touch of period authenticity as a wisecracking punk who becomes the spoiled brat and future Louis XVI in the fantasy scenes."
-RICHARD DODDS, Bay Area Reporter http://ebar.com/arts/art_article.php?sec=theatre&article=1031
"Jordan Sidfield played Charley/the dauphin, the royal psychotic twerp in the Louis XV French dream. His nightclub counterpart, the new washroom attendant replacing lottery winner Bruce Vilanch’s character, came from reform school. Danny Scheie again, would be so proud if not inspired. Sidfield could very well be Son of Scheie. Good job on your 42nd Street Moon debut, Mr. Sidfield."
-CINDY WARNER, SF Theater Examiner http://www.examiner.com/review/cole-porter-s-du-barry-was-a-lady-closes-21st-season-for-42nd-street-moon
As Will Parker in Oklahoma!:
"But the talent in “Oklahoma” doesn’t stop there. Up pops the indomitable Jordan Sidfield as fresh-faced, lovesick Will Parker. Sidfield is a true triple-threat man, as evinced by his tap dancing, singing, rope twirling – even acrobatics – in “Kansas City.”
-JOANNE ENGELHAFT, Play Monterey Bay, http://www.playmontereybay.com/best-reads/theater-review-oh-what-a-beautiful-production/
"And then there’s Jordan Sidfield and Vanessa Vazquez. Wild cards they, their Will Parker and Ado Annie are a hoot. Sure, their characters’ romantic entanglement are intended to braise the musical’s belly with comedy, but you’d be hard-pressed to find two other actors whose comedic timing, vocals, dancing and sheer stage presence manage to elevate an already memorable production to even greater heights. Sidfield is spirited—nice rope, boy!—and Vazquez is just born for this role."

As Laurie in Little Women:
“Sidfield proves himself among the cast’s most versatile members, having first dazzled this reviewer in umpteen roles in I Love You Because and then as Wedding Singer Robbie Hart. In Little Women, he once again dazzles as Laurie, the too-good-to-be-true boy-next-door every preteen fiction fan has at one time longed to wed, hitting the sky-high notes in “Take A Chance On Me” as only the best and bravest of tenors can.”
-STEVEN STANLEY, StageScene LA http://www.stagescenela.com/2012/04/little-women-the-musical/
As Robbie Hart in Wedding Singer
“Sidfield, who won a 'Best Ensemble Scenie' for his scene-stealing multiple role track in I Love You Because, simply could not be better or more charismatically winning as Robbie, a role he invests with such infectious charm that he has the audience in the palm of his hand from Scene One.”
-STEVEN STANLEY, StageScene LA, http://www.stagescenela.com/2011/11/the-wedding-singer-3/
“[Sidfield's] voice was surprisingly powerful, and any ballad was sung with a Gorgeous Voice that definitely needs to be signed to record label immediately.”
-GILLIAN HEADLAND, Daily Titan, http://www.dailytitan.com/2011/11/review-the-wedding-singer/
As New York Man in I Love You Because
“As New York Woman and New York Man (i.e. every other supporting role and cameo in the show), Chelsea Baldree and Jordan Sidfield provide bang-up backup, making each of their characters distinct, and exhibiting an abundance of comedic/vocal talent in each one.”
-STEVEN STANLEY, StageScene LA, http://www.stagescenela.com/2011/03/i-love-you-because/
