Critics and articles about[edit]

- Theater critic and columnist Yaşam Kaya says: "Burak Davutoğlu, Şebnem Köstem, Gökçer Genç and Direnç Dedeoğlu are attracting attention with the success of the stage. Burak Davutoğlu on Robert and Gökçer Genç harmony on Jerry shine on stage." And for the 2016-2017 theater season, he nominated Burak Davutoğlu, as "The most successful male player of the year"[17] (for the play Betrayal)
- Theater critic and columnist Pınar Çekirge says: "Their emotional bond with their role is so strong. In every scene, in every line, they perform perfectly and speak their mastery. Burak Davutoğlu, like the old plays, once again gives life to Robert, he comes to the forefront with his acting and superior interpretation power."[18] (for the play Betrayal)
- Theater critic and columnist Mehmet Konuk says: Burak Davutoğlu plays on the stage in the role of Hussein. He set the distance and the place he stand very accurately. He could play exaggeratedly. The game also suitable for it, but I think it would not be right in front of the story. In this context, the presentation of a quiet Hussein made sense to play more plainly.[19] (for the play Kerbela)
- Theater critic and columnist of Cumhuriyet newspaper Öznur Oğraş Çolak says: "Burak Davutoğlu draws attention with his soft and smart playing style." (for the play Kerbela)[20]

- Columnist Gülşen Bilge Kaya; (for the play Kerbela), writes that she thinks the burden of the play, that is staged with such a large team, is mostly on Burak Davutoğlu who is the lead player in the role of Hussein. She says that he was really impressive and enormous. And expresses like "Indeed, I was about to believe that he was really imam Hussein."[21]
- Ankara University Philosophy Professor Doctor Yaman Örs, in his academic article, says: "In the play, with the Burak Davutoğlu's interpretation as Lucky, he indicates an intellectual(!) who lost his control because of the dominant forces." (for the play, Waiting for Godot)
