| 2017 | Archetype | Robert Carell | Supporting | Zod Films (nl) | I was absolutely amazed by the quality of the voice acting work Neil did for me. He hit the nail right on the head with absolute precision and more. I had asked Neil to do some text parts for a character I had written. He truly delivered. His voice is very rich and he has it under perfect control, giving the character the right personality." Robert Carell - Producer |

| 2018 | My Fair Lady | Doolittle | Garland Summer Musicals (Equity) | Nominated for Best Supporting Actor - Neil Rogers as Alfred Doolittle lands the extra comedic punch to this frequently funny musical as Eliza’s bawdy, money-grubbing, ne’er do well father. I only wished I could have heard every word clearly. Maybe his cockney accent was too good. | |
| 2018 | Mame | Penny Maas / Jay Dias | Claude Upson | Lyric Stage (Equity) | |
| 2018 | Various other projects | et al | "Neil Rogers showed his prowess in comedic timing" - The Columns "a flair for physical comedy that's entertaining to watch" - TheatreJones "Rogers portrayed this dark character with an evilness and sang with a richness befitting this character" - eSocial World | ||

| 2016 | Romeo and Juliet | Capulet | Stolen Shakespeare Festival | Surprisingly good is Neil Rogers as Juliet’s father, Capulet. His performance is big, bold, and full of fire and heart. His scene where he rails at Juliet’s disobedience has touches of Orson Welles. - M. Lance Lusk - Theater Jones | |
| 2015 | Oklahoma | Jud | Stolen Shakespeare Festival | As Jud, Neil Rogers takes on this complex character with skill and booming vocals, making his journey as a character both scary and heartbreaking. - Juliana Adame - THE COLUMN Rogers is darkly imposing as the bitter and socially maladroit Jud, whom he sings as well as he acts. His thunderous voice works well as an extension of his character. - Punch Shaw - Fort Worth Star Telegram Neil Rogers is a dark, muscular presence as Jud, and his fine voice sends a shiver down the spine. Not a guy to get crosswise of. - Jan Farrington - Theatre Jones | |
| 2011 | Best Little Whorehouse in Texas | Michael Susko | - Senator Wingwoah/ Mayor Rufus | Casa Manana Theater (Equity) | |
| 2010 | A Catered Affair | Jac Alder | Sam / Mr. Halloran | Theatre Three (Equity) | Nominated for Best Supporting Actor - "Neil Rogers creates two very different and successful characters. First Sam, the business partner to Tom the father, is the Everyman he should be. [Then] Mr. Halloran as the obnoxious over-the-top jerk, the stereotypical in-law to fear. While both these characters would do well in a sitcom, the opposites are interesting, and Rogers shows his versatility." - Clyde Berry - The Column |

| 2018 | Baseline Trailer | ADR | David Cole Productions | I have worked with Neil twice now and each time I am amazed by the quality of his work. His vocal performance brings a project to life by capturing the characters emotion. Each project was completed quickly and effectively with no timing or audio issues, that made my job very easy. He has become my go to guy for ADR and I will undoubtedly call upon him in the future. |
| 2018 | USC Pro Day (ESPN) | Commercial | Technician Films | Neil did a tremendous job on the recording for my project [ESPN Commercial]. The quality is impeccable and he worked on multiple revisions to make the work perfect and bring my idea to life. Highly recommend this voice actor for all voice over needs! |

| 2018 | eLearning portfolio | E-Learning | X3 Tradesmen | Fantastic to work with, easy to communicate and very responsive. I have used them a few times, They have been very responsive with high quality audio and easy to work with |
| 2018 | Baseline Film | ADR | David Cole Productions | I was commissioned to do the music and sound for a short film. Upon receiving it I found that the original dialogue was completely unsuitable and beyond repair, and that the projects GM had “misplaced” the individual audio files. Fortunately Neil was able to not only re-record the original dialogue to the same tempo and phrasing as the lead actors played it, but also have more life and clarity than the original audio. |

SKILLS
| Voice Over | Highlights: I have been providing voice overs for decades with over 600 customers across 36 countries. I have trained with some of the leading VO and engineers in the business and continue to perfect my skills as well as offer training and coaching myself. My background in voice and acting have played a major role in my advancement in Voice Over, learning to adapt the stage and screen experience to effective Voice Over (acting experience does not always equate to VO success). |
| Stage Acting | I have been performing for decades across multiple states and countries. The credits listed on this page are only a small sample of the hundreds of productions that I have been honored to be in. I was formerly trained in College and continued my education and training after college. I have taken advanced courses in Meisner acting technique and improv classes as well as workshops on Playing Shakespeare (Barton), Uta Hagen, and Larry Moss. I have won multiple awards for acting as well as many nominations for my performances. |
| Acting Film | Leveraging my training in acting in general and taking workshops to hone how to apply it to film |
| Voice | I have been singing longer than I have been acting. Classically trained in College and prior to college. I also continued my training with private lessons for many years after college, honing my control and delivery of my voice. |
