“As good as those five cast members are [in GLORIA by Brandon Jacobs-Jenkins], and they are very good, it's the emotionally sound and moving performance in act three by Jonathan Hernandez as Lorin that will resonate the most–his quiet, fragile, and personal plea for kindness and compassion is one we all need to sit up and pay attention to.” - Gil Benbrook | Talkin’ Broadway

“STILT is brilliantly written – intricately woven, if you'll pardon the pun. It's intellectually complex but also operates on a raw emotional level that gets under your skin and stays there. The tonal range is remarkable, moving from genuine tenderness to moments that are legitimately frightening, and the cast navigates these shifts with skill and precision. Hernandez brings his signature emotional depth to Chris, capturing that specific way siblings can see through each other's defenses while still desperately wanting to protect them.” - Krista Garver | Broadway World

“In [THE COMPULSORY BEST FRIENDSHIP OF LIMMY AND WAGS] Jonathan Hernandez, who seems to be incapable of delivering a false performance, was a delight as various characters, including the brother, a very silly and unapologetic doctor, and a guy – amusingly called Guy – who Limmy meets on a dating app.” - Linda Ferguson | Oregon Arts Watch

“OUR ORANGE SKY weaves personal struggles and societal issues into a family reunion where no escapes unscathed. My favorite performance was by Hernandez as Junior. This is the third time I’ve seen Hernandez perform, and I’m always struck by his ability to imbue tough-on-the-outside characters with heartbreaking vulnerability.” - Krista Garver | Broadway World
