Archive note: Sedly is his current legal and public name. Historical programs and articles may show Sedley, his former legal spelling. The original documents are preserved as published.
Four productions that capture Sedly’s range—from quiet authority and dramatic precision to warmth, comedy, and movement.
“Bloomfield has the kind of quiet power and enormous dignity that makes it understandable why the peevish, and artlessly racist white commanding officer… sputtered and waffled whenever they confronted.”
— Shirley Mathews, theater reviewer
The review placed Sedly at the center of the Pulitzer Prize-winning drama. A second critic praised the “undaunting finesse and alacrity” of his Captain Davenport.
“Bloomfield’s Hoke is equally impressive… he is a sensational comic presence. For nearly two hours, he really is Hoke.”
— James V. Ruocco, Republican-American
The News-Times praised a “charmingly understated performance” and called Bloomfield “genuine and unaffected throughout.”
“Mr. Bloomfield is a highly skilled performer… It is a first-rate performance.”
— Pat Endress, The Sherman Sentinel
Endress added that he “would add to the professionalism of any cast.” Another review named him “a standout.”
