Reviews of Vieux Carré at The Pearl:

Before the Writer hitches a ride with a young musician (the bright Christian Pedersen), we’re given a glimpse into the other boarders’ lives..."
-Hilton Als, The New Yorker

"Finally there is Sky, a handsome young drifter who appears out of nowhere and may be The Writer's salvation or his ruination or both. He's exactly what Tom says the Gentleman Caller is in The Glass Menagerie: 'the long-delayed but always expected something that we live for.' Christian Pedersen embodies this idea to a T."
-Martin Denton, NYTheatre.com

Reviews of Dead Ringer at New Jersey Rep:

"...forcefully absorbing...a winning combination...[Christian Pedersen] gives a highly believable performance."
-Anita Gates, The New York Times

"NJ Rep's creepy world premiere is worthy of the season...as Dwight, the blond-haired Christian Pedersen has the right 'aw-shucks' naivete.  His blue eyes get progressively wider as events become more shocking."
-Peter Filichia, The Newark Star Ledger

"In his Rep debut, Pedersen recalls the gangly 1960's Western actor Will Hutchins in his portrait of the seemingly naive and kind-hearted Dewey."
-Tom Chesek, The Asbury Park Press

Review of Walking The Volcano at The Vineyard Playhouse:

The first quartet of plays represents youth, with Heather Girardi and Christian Pedersen - extraordinary chameleons, both - pitted against each other in a series of fraught situations... “Girl in the Basement’’ (1973) concerns two romantically entangled but mutually competitive musicians trying to score a recording contract. Girardi proves a crack Grace Slick imitator, Pedersen a really good blues guitarist (he wrote the music for the title song), and their clashing egos yield easy laughs.
-Sandy MacDonald, The Boston Globe

Reviews of Cornbury: The Queen's Governor at the Hudson Guild:

"Greenspan is surrounded by capable actors cast to type and playing to the hilt: …Christian Pedersen as the boyish foe of the fancy-dressing governor who is seduced into rapturous fascination.”
-Charles Isherwood, The New York Times

"Christian Pedersen, who plays Van Dam's son Rip, has a lovely and sincere presence, thoughtfully underplaying the role against the histrionics of everyone else."  -Duncan Pflaster, BroadwayWorld

“Christian Pedersen makes a favorable impression as the pastor's son Rip, whose allegiance starts to shift following an encounter with Cornbury.”   -Dan Bacalzo, TheaterMania

“When the pastor's handsome son Rip (Christian Pedersen) attempts to deliver a petition to Cornbury protesting his comportment, their confrontation is so well written and performed that their sword fight becomes a seductive moment, a peek into Cornbury's soul beneath all the flowing silk, satin, and lace.”
-Leonard Jacobs, Backstage

“Cornbury is a great deal of fun, and like all of the very best theatre, offers genuine substance as well.   Standouts among the supporting players include Christian Pedersen as hunky naif Rip Van Dam.”
-Martin Denton, NYTheatre.com

Reviews of Another Vermeer at the Abingdon Theatre:

"Christian Pedersen delivers a crisp commanding performance as Lt. Thomas Keller..."
-Jo Ann Rosen, NYTheatre.com

"Kelly Morgan has directed a proficient cast headed by Pendleton...Christian Pedersen as Lieutenant Keller lends apt support..."    -John Simon, Bloomberg.com

"Another Vermeer proves that thinking can be as dangerous as a street fight."  –Mark Blankenship, Variety

Review of Five by Three at the Midtown Int'l Theatre Festival:

"Five by Three is a fun and amusing show and the 13 member cast does a great job.  Standouts include Christian Pedersen...it will leave you laughing..." Byrne Harrison, Off-Off Broadway Review

 Review of the short film The Other Woman:

"We see the young woman who steals a man (Martin, played by the charming Christian Pedersen) from his older lover...a thoughful film..."  ---  Wendy R.

Reviews of Barefoot in the Park at Arkansas Rep:

"Paul, a careful, buttoned-down lawyer, is acted by soap and stage vet Christian Pedersen.  Rangy, in skinny ties and with a part in his blonde hair so neat it seems cultivated from childhood, Pedersen is every bit the cautious, by-the-book type. But in his stentorian reading of the character, the actor makes Paul someone who, in protecting the prudent course, is just as willing as Corie to get crazy."   ---Lindsay Millar, Arkansas Times

 "An era-appropriate optimism buoys even the bickering as newlyweds Corie and Paul (Christian Pedersen, something of a Nordic Clark Kent) settle into their sixth-floor walk-up."  ---Kyle Brazzel, Arkansas Gazette

Reviews of Peace Now! at the Workshop Theatre:

"Christian Pedersen provides much of the humor as a likeable but not-too-smart hippie who keeps hitting on all the women in the group...the must-see production of this year's festival..." --Jeanette Toomer, BackStage

"Standouts include Christian Pedersen as Scott...I wanted to love these people, who more than once compared themselves to French students standing up for freedom behind the barricades" --Martin Denton, NYTheatre.com

Reviews of Historic Times at the 78th Street Theatre Lab:

"Historic Times is one of those plays that deserves a life beyond its Equity Showcase run.  It's inspired, stimulating theatre of the highest order.  It demands to be seen." ---Martin Denton, NYTheatre.com

"Christian Pedersen was unbelievably crass" ---Victor Gluck, BackStage
