Reviews:

"Rogers... flashes from intoxicatingly coy one moment to comically deranged the next, employing elastic expressions that would make Jim Carrey proud. With her magnificently manic and alluringly androgynous take on the sprite... Rogers has created a stage character that will live in the memory of theatergoers for years."  --Brian Passey, St. George Spectrum

"Puck is a star-turning role for Rogers, and I hope the Festival is paying attention, for I hope to see her in starring roles at the Festival for many years to come" -- Mahonri Stewart, Front Row Reviews

"...[A]ppropriately impish" -- Russell Warne, Utah Theatre Bloggers

Reviews:

“[S]ubtlety and clarity are the hallmarks of Kelly Rogers’ performance as Lady Macbeth. Her rendition handles the language with assurance. Her first speech, reading her husband’s letter from the battlefield, is so well spoken that I actually learned more about this character than I had known before. Intention, rhythm, and character are all in sync. The choices she makes in the mad scene are inspired.” — Joel Applegate, Front Row Reviewers Utah

“Rogers’s interpretation of the famous ‘out, out, damn’d spot’ monologue was gripping… It was a stellar performance, satisfying in every way…” — Rachel Helwig, Utah Theatre Bloggers
