" ...most notably Mills, who certainly has the timing, charisma and chin to serve as a proper fit for the role of Ash. Mills goes beyond chewing the scenery: he slashes it to pieces with one swoop of his chainsaw for a hand."
-Review St. Louis
"Every so often an actor emerges who is what I call a "five-tool-player," a term borrowed from baseball, describing someone who can run, hit, field, throw, and hit for power. In the theater, this means someone who can act, sing, dance, and is skilled at comedy as well as drama. That description fits Trent Mills,"

"...Trent Mills...Regal Zaddy Triton" -Broadway World
"Despite his limited stage time, Trent Mills was a comedic delight as the unimpressed, way-too-busy-for-this stagehand bringing Callas the items she periodically requests in the rehearsal room. Mills and (Vicki) Lewis eyed each other with an adversarial air that sent the audience into giggles every time."

"My favorite voice, (both singing and talking,) belongs to Trent Mills as Ariel’s father; it’s so lovely and, well, Broadway. The guy is definitely versatile–I loved Trent as the goofy and lovable title ogre in Shrek in a production elsewhere almost six years ago, and would not have imagined that young guy’s powerful portrayal of King Triton in this one."

"and speaking of reinvention, Mills’ mountainous marvel of a Marcellus is as marvelous a somersaulting sidekick as any Music Man could wish for."
-StaceScene LA
..."And Mills’ final scene of climbing the walls – literally – as he tries to escape the imagined hound, is a tour-de-force of antic energy and invention, startling expertise..."
-Wicked Local (Boston)
.."Mills brings a significant gravitas that nicely counterbalances moments that make us giggle and have us seamlessly enjoying his Shrek materialize in the flesh. .. Mills not only sings his heart out, like in the goosebumps-inducing “Who I’d Be,” but he gets Shrek’s aw-shucks mannerisms just right to be terrifically root-worthy in the role. It is a performance that elicits sympathy, smiles, and many laughs."
