Peter, "Peter and the Starcatcher"
"Robertson delivers much of the show’s poignancy and edge. Robertson expresses her character’s uncertainty and vulnerability with a clarity that’s both heartwarming and heartbreaking. The darkness and weight of Peter’s damaged past is visible in Robertson’s physical characterization, as well as the awkwardness of being suspended between adulthood and his stolen childhood. Robertson captures the striking tragedy of Pan’s simple plea: “I just want to be a boy for a while.” -The Independent
"Robertson portrays Peter with her trademark intensity, adeptly transforming the character over the course of the story from a lost nameless boy to the familiar Peter Pan with the confident crow." -Broadway World
Astolphe, "Gabriel"
"Robertson as Astolphe gave a masterful performance in a definitively male role.. it is undeniably thought-provoking to see a female actor portraying an entitled male prick motivated by his own insecurity, especially as well as Robertson does it." -Motif
"with Robertson a clear standout as the oddly vulnerable Astolphe. With his “peasant’s muscles” he’s constantly getting into bar fights, but Robertson injects nuance and conflict into her performance." -Law and Order Party
The Maniac, "Accidental Death of an Anarchist"
"the maniacal sanity of the outstanding Kelly Robertson is the key to making the whole play work as her character just wants to watch the world burn." -Motif
"the utterly adorable Robertson...brings an infectious energy" - Broadway World
"Kelly Robertson is a springing bundle of drive and bright-eyed fun as Maniac. Small, leythe and quick both physically and mentally, she keeps this production rolling with humor." -RIpr
