Joshua just completed a run as Alexander Molokov in CHESS and received some wonderful notices from critics.
"The polished Joshua Finkel combined sexy and sinister as the devious Molokov"
---TONY FRANKEL, StageandCinema.com
“Quartet (A Model Of Decorum And Tranquility)” adds Finkel’s voice to Warne’s, Graae’s, and Callaway’s to heart-pounding effect. Then again, cheers are the order of the evening as, one after another, Callaway, Graae, Pardo, and Warne vie for Most Valuable Player, with Caldretti, Collyer, and Finkel each having their own stellar supporting moments in the spotlight."
