Tis Pity She's A Whore- Giovanni
Mortal Fools Collective
"Altman, on the other hand, was uncompromising in making Giovanni genuinely quite scary. There were smiles every now and again – when Giovanni got what he wanted – but no romanticization of the character, with aggression always underpinning Giovanni’s destructive rejection of the world’s values and morals and his sister’s own ability to consent."

The Winter's Tale-
Polixeness/Clown/Lord/Steward/Jailer
Constellation Shakespeare Collective
"The Sicilian court was the bleeding into Sicilia of the color of Bohemia (best epitomized in a joyful 5.2 led by Altman’s steward, here an over-enthusiastic chef explaining the discoveries with vivid physical illustration to his peers and Autolycus)"
-The Bardathon
Macbeth- Macbeth
Constellation Shakespeare Collective
"Again and again, you were clear and convincing, and I think it's some of the best work you have done. I was especially impressed with the silent work you did on your box during those moments when characters inside the play would speak to or about you."
- Ralph Cohen (Co-Founder American Shakespeare Center)
Romeo and Juliet- Romeo
The Wayne Theatre
"Romeo is nothing if not impetuous, and Louis Altman captured that rashness as well as his sense of loyalty as he clearly articulated Shakespeare’s complex, poetic language."
- The Crozet Gazette
A Midsummer Night's Dream-
Demetrius/Snug
Mended Wing Theatre Co
"Altman’s relaxed, confident Demetrius sauntered into the play with the backing of Egeus and a physical swagger that bespoke his surety.
- The Bardathon
A Christmas Carol-
u/s (perf.) Young Scrooge
The American Shakespeare Center
The Good Doctor- The Writer
The Oak Grove Theatre
As You Like It- Touchstone
Mary Baldwin Shakespeare and Performance
"Louis Altman’s Touchstone was an outlier in the court, confined to denim and a blue blazer but with an unabashed line in innuendo (I’ve rarely seen the knight’s mustard and pancakes made to sound quite so dirty)."
- The Bardathon
The Two Noble Kinsmen- Wooer
Mary Baldwin Shakespeare and Performance
