"...Craig Schulman is terrific as Valjean. Blessed with a pure tranquilizing tenor, [he] is every bit as good as Colm Wilkenson, the role's originator. In addition, he is a finer actor than Wilkenson...able to characterize with more forcible impact."
-Randy Shulman, The Washington Times

"At the center of the show's success is Craig Schulman's Valjean, acted and sung with tremendous taste and power. His voice...is one of the glories of this production."
-Richard Christiansen, Chicago Tribune

"His face may be hideous (Phantom), but [Craig Schulman's] voice is angelic as he urges Christine on to greatness. It is just as powerful when he moans in anguish at her betrayal or scolds those who would dare cross him."
- Kathy Janich, Atlanta Journal/Constitution

"Craig Schulman's acting is as good as his singing – and that is quite wonderful – in the title role (Phantom of The Opera). Your heart breaks along with his once you understand his madness."
-Russ Musarra, Akron Beacon Journal

"As the misshapen recluse who becomes Mary's reluctant guardian (Secret Garden), Schulman expresses all the yearning and conflicted impulses of a man so ambivalent, that he can only express his love for his invalid son when the boy is sleeping."
-CitySearch Infosite, Raleigh, NC

"As Valjean, Craig Schulman is superb."
-Hap Erstein, The Washington Times

"Miz whiz shows why he's tops in the biz... Tenor Craig Schulman gained fame as Valjean in Les Mis, but Friday night he was 'Master of the House', doling out his charm and talent to a capacity crowd at the Syracuse Symphony Pops Concert... [His] demeanor was warm and inviting...and his singing became more animated with the evening... Because of his Yiddishkayt, he captured the Yiddish schtick with old-world inflections and gestures in 'If I Were A Rich Man'... The highlight of the evening was Schulman's heart-rending rendition of 'Bring Him Home'... I preferred his interpretation to that of Colm Wilkenson of the original Broadway cast.
