Reviews for Jason’s work in The Sunshine Boys:

“The audience could feel the love of a nephew mixed with frustration of taken care of the elderly client.  Silverman’s performance hit home with this reviewer, knowing well how frustrating it is to care for a loved one with memory loss. “ - NewJerseyStage.com

“Silverman is an excellent foil to Wallnau’s crusty Clark who refuses to acknowledge he may be getting older and forgetful. He uses flattery, guilt and the threat of withholding his uncle’s cigars to get him to agree to at least meet with Lewis.” -NJArtsMaven.com

“As Willie’s nephew/agent, Jason Silverman urgently wants to reunite the partners.  He knows they both want it, but they are too stubborn and prideful to admit any wrongdoing.  Silverman does a great job of directing the audience’s feelings toward this broken team.” - PhillyLifeandCulture.com
