Reviews:
  • North County Times by Pam Kragen:
    "San Diego actor Shaun Tuazon steps into drag for the second time in three months (he co-starred in Circle Circle dot dot's "Deconstruction of a Drag Queen" in April) as Angel... He's a good singer/dancer and endearingly sweet."
    http://www.nctimes.com/entertainment/arts-and-theatre/theatre/theater-review-rent-rocks-with-young-energetic-cast/article_d0394fdb-ff2c-5119-9fac-c0df0a7a5c93.html 
  • Pat Launer - Center Stage:
    "The one notable and exceptional local is Shaun Tuazon as the angelic drag queen, Angel. This is a high-energy, praiseworthy production, with top-notch singing and a first-rate band. The rented set is outstanding, as is Ron Kellum’s direction."
    http://www.jazz88.org/centerStage.php  
  • Charlene And Brenda In the Blogosphere - Charlene Baldridge:
    "We already know he’s an indefatigable, wondrously strong dancer, able to leap onto tall tables effortlessly. He is possessed as well with an undeniable, sweet appeal perfect for Angel."
    http://charleneandbrendaintheblogosphere.blogspot.com/2012/07/sdmt-rent-beautiful-vista.html  
  • San Diego Reader:
    "The show had good energy, some good singing, and some great singing."
    http://www.sandiegoreader.com/weblogs/jam-session/2012/jul/02/rent-boheme/  
  • Review by Rob Appel, San Diego Theatre Reviews:
    "Popular, local singer-actor Shaun Tuazon (as a snappy, you-go-girl, Angel) - is remembered recently for his bombastic, coming-out performance in "Deconstruction of a Drag Queen" at the 10th Ave Theatre - now, here in RENT, Shaun Tuazon just continues to get better and better..."
