Someone once told me to never read reviews. Believe them. But I also listen to my own inner being. So I read them after closing night. Here’s some stuff people say about me:
Zafira and the Resistance
The Guthrie Theater & New Arab-American Theater
“The co-directors have led the actors to elicit vivid moments of emotional truth...Clay Man Soo as a maintenance man brings a sense of humanity and urgency as secrets of the school facility’s shadowy holding ward emerges”.

Mother Courage and Her Children
at Pangea World Theater
"Despite Brecht's challenges for the actors, the marvelous and diverse ensemble create a number of engaging characters. Standouts in the cast include... Clay Man Soo, as Mother Courage's son Eilif, [who] was virtually unrecognizable from his delightful character in Theater Mu's A Korean Drama Addict's Guide to Losing Your Virginity". -MN Theater Love
"Favorites for me included...Clay Man Soo as convicted recruit Eilif… They all find small details that breathe their characters into life and tackle this material with full humanity".

May Lee Yang's The Korean Drama Addict's
Guide to Losing Your Virginity
"In a strong 10-person cast, standouts include Clay Man Soo as an acquiescent secretary who grows wings..." -Twin Cities Pioneer Press
"Clay Man Soo, as Benedict's assistant, is youthful and engaging. His portrayal of Secretary Kim is so delightful and lovable that even a surprising change of clothes produces a great laugh. He's another star to keep an eye on."
-Minnesota Theater Love
"Benedict's sidekick, Secretary Kim, is played by Clay Man Soo, and he's young, enthusiastic, and provides the perfect amount of vulnerability." -One Girl Two Cities
"...It is Clay Man Soo’s Secretary Kim that stole my heart and will remain the character I will think back to most. Lee-Yang writes him with humor and great clarity, building a character that gives Soo the ability to really chart Secretary Kim’s progression through the play. It’s a stellar performance by Soo, and worth the price of admission in its own right." -Minnesota Playlist Review
