Little Shop of Horrors - Howard Brubeck Theatre

"I liked his characterization...Even Steve Martin's rendition of Orin the dentist in the 1988 movie-version of 'Little Shop' did not amuse me as much as Hand's.  With just his facial expressions, he can convince the audience that he is not only a maniac, but a moron as well.  As an audience, we should all hate the presence of this evil character.  But Hand is too fun to watch as the diabolical dentist that I wanted to see him in more scenes, even if it meant he'd be slapping around innocent people."

John DeCoursey - Entertainment Editor - The Telescope

 

"Chuck Hand plays the dentist, with a maniacal laugh and a penchant for nitrous oxide that might make a few dentist cringe, but is the right mix for comical relief. His sexist response and mistreatment of Audrey puts him tops on everyone's hit list."

Pat Kumpan - Staff Writer -  News-Journal

 

Pippin - Howard Brubeck Theatre
"When King Charles, played by Chuck Hand, welcomes Pippin home, all attention was immediately captured by his powerful, enchanting voice."

Katie Thompson - Staff Writer - The Telescope

 
"Also a standout is Chuck Hand of Oceanside as Charlemagne.  Hand's singing voice has grown noticeably stronger and richer in the past year, and he's particularly engaging in the songs 'Welcome Home' and 'War Is A Science'.

Bedroom Farce - Howard Brubeck Theatre
""...Case [the director] has found the right actors for each character.  Topping the list is Chuck Hand, who plays the indisposed Nick...Hand brings out the suffering - and the humor - anyone can recount who has been in such a situation."
Ruth Lepper - North County Times
 
South Pacific - MiraCosta College
""Charles Hand, as the aforementioned Frenchman, Emile de Becque, ages believably and has the right distringuished flair and warm singing voice needed for his character."
Pam Kragen - North County Times
