Περνούσε με μία συναισθηματική πληρότητα από όλες τις πτυχές του χαρακτήρα του Κέλλερ, με αδρές χαράξεις και περισσή άνεση (...) Τέλος η παράσταση έχει να δώσει πολλά στο θεατρόφιλο κοινό, αφενός γιατί το έργο παραμένει επίκαιρο και είναι φτιαγμένο από έναν που γνώριζε πολύ καλά να χειρίζεται την πένα, αφετέρου γιατί ο Κώστας Τριανταφυλλόπουλος δίνει ένα ρεσιτάλ υποκριτικής.'
