“As Caesar, Johnny Lee Davenport projects the power of a man who thinks he has earned every bit of it: He’s a lion of a man who no longer has to listen to what anybody else has to say.”
—Elizabeth Maupin, Orlando Sentinel (April 19, 2006)

“Caesar, as played by Johnny Lee Davenport, is a booming presence, both in voice and stature.”
