White Christmas, Music Theater Works, 2022

“…lovely Kelly Britt is simply breathtaking as Betty Haynes, the Rosemary Clooney role. Her performance of “Love, You Didn’t Do Right By Me” is both soulful and beautifully performed. Mr. Thurston and Ms Britt brings old-fashioned style and romance to numbers like “Count Your Blessings (Instead of Sheep)” and “How Deep is the Ocean.”” Colin Douglas, Chicago Theatre Review

“Britt is a delight and wows the audience in several numbers including the comical "Falling Out of Love Can be Fun".”  Kimberly Katz, Buzz Center Stage

“Kelly Britt rounds out the main characters with her marvelous portrayal of Betty Haynes.” Alan Bresloff, Around the Town Chicago

Mamma Mia, Skylight Music Theater, 2022

“Britt and Satchell… make a terrific comic duo with a touch of Ginger/Mary Ann dynamic.” Jim Higgins, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

“The real scene-stealers of the production are Donna’s best gal pals – the exuberant tag-along Rosie (Amanda Satchell) and the chic and cynical Tanya (Kelly Britt). Both women play comedy with ease, while filling out their sparkling jumpsuits with verve as superb back-up singers. Britt brings plenty of heat to the sexy tease, “Does Your Mother Know?” ” Gwendolyn Rice

“Kelly Britt and Amanda Satchell, as the former partners in disco crime, are both given her own opportunity to shine and each grabs them with both hands.” Cathy Jakicic, BroadwayWorld

“Kelly Britt (Tanya) and Amanda Satchell (Rosie) deliver their own star tuns and really hold the stage in their own numbers…”Chiquitita” is straight-out hilarious as Donna’s two good friends from her old girl group try to cheer her up over the lovers’ appearance. The visual sight gags add much to what could just be another song being sung.” Harry Cherkinian, Shepherd Express

 “(Britt and Satchell) are just hilarious! Donna’s “dynamos” are particularly well casted, brimming with personality and quick-witted humor every time they’re on the stage.” Alli Watters, Milwaukee Mag

Ragtime, Music Theater Works, 2021

“Elegant, golden-voiced” -Hedy Weiss, WTTW

“excellently portrayed and sung” -Jodie Jacobs, Chicago Theater and Arts

“Kelly Britt is simply magnificent as Mother. From her upright posture, her subtle expressions, to the care she takes with every movement and the fierce maternal devotion she projects, Kelly is perfection as this upper middle class woman on the brink of self-discovery. And when she sings, the heavens open up and the angels weep. Her clear diction and thoughtful phrasing drive songs like “Goodbye My Love/Journey On,” the beautifully touching “Our Children” and her eloquent eleventh hour anthem to change, “Back to Before.” -Colin Douglas, Chicago Theatre Review

Love, Chaos, and Dinner, Teatro ZinZanni Chicago, 2019

“Chicago performer Kelly Britt also brings her operatic talents to the stage, performing a killer rendition of the complex "Glitter and Be Gay" from Leonard Bernstein’s CANDIDE.” Rachel Weinberg, BroadwayWorld Chicago.

“ZinZanni might seem to have come from the past with its rather caustic, Edith Piaf-like songstress-emcee in Amelia Zirin-Brown and the operatically capable Kelly Britt.” Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune

“Chicago’s own Kelly Britt provides opera arias worthy of grand auditoriums.” Miriam DeNunzio, Chicago Sun-Times

“Giving Rizo more than a run for her money is Chicago-bred opera singer Kelly Britt, whose soaring soprano is ideally showcased in her superb performances of “Glitter and Be Gay,” from Leonard Bernstein’s “Candide,” and an aria from Puccini’s “La Boheme.” Hedy Weiss, WTTW

“Chicagoan Kelly Britt adds to the ambience with her glorious operatically-trained voice, a nice counterpoint to Rizo’s theatrical belting.” Karen Topham, Chicago Onstage

“Love also fills the air with the remarkable performance of soprano Kelly Britt, a Chicagoan who has a family history in the Parisian circus.” Ed Tracy, Picks in Six

“The marvelous vocals by Kelly Britt, our chanteuse, and the production numbers that are done to serve each course are outstanding.” Alan Bresloff, Around the Town Chicago

“Chicagoan Kelly Britt is terrific, as always, whether singing opera, standards or pop. Ms. Britt will be remembered for her starring roles in Windy City productions of “Into the Woods,” “Guys and Dolls” and “The Music Man,” as well as in operas, like “Carmen” and “The Marriage of Figaro.” She simply sparkles on the Spielgeltent stage and demonstrates the gifts that make her an undeniable talent.” Colin Douglas, Chicago Theatre Review

Love, Chaos, and Dinner, Teatro ZinZanni Seattle, 2019

“Kelly Britt is a new addition to the show. Her soprano voice is strong as she belts out the classic “Glitter and Be Gay” from Candide, or the beautiful “Flower Duet” from the opera Lakmé.” Eric Andrews-Katz

“(Kelly Britt) is truly charming in this show.” Writer of Pop

Into the Woods, Music Theater Works, 2018

”…an ideally non-Disney-like portrayal” -Hedy Weiss, WTTW

“Beautiful Kelly Britt, with a voice like Waterford crystal, was born to play Cinderella. She’s always lovely, whether in her soiled scullery rags or a luxurious ballgown and golden slippers. Ms. Britt’s performance is compelling, honest and refreshing; and her renditions of “A Very Nice Prince,” “On the Steps of the Palace” and the sublime “No One is Alone” are quite simply gorgeous.” -Colin Douglas, Chicago Theatre Review

”Cinderella (Kelly Britt) is divine.” -Alan Bresloff, Around the Town Chicago

”Kelly Britt is an absolutely lovely and touching Cinderella.” -John Olson, Chicago Theatre Beat

The Mystery of Edwin Drood, 2017

Into the Woods, Wagon Wheel, 2017

“Playing the Baker’s Wife is Kelly Britt…Her strong performance gives those around her something real to play against and she doesn’t let go.” -Times Union

Die Fledermaus, Light Opera Works, 2016

"Britt, as Adele, is stunning. As fine of singer as anyone in the cast, she’s lovely, but with a down-to-earth girl-next-door quality and a keen sense of comic timing." -John Olsen, Chicago Theater Beat

"...played to perfection." -Jim Schneider, Showbiz Chicago

" The real candy of Act I might just be Kelly Britt as Adele, a lovely chambermaid with ambitions of her own. Her comedic strength is consistent throughout." -John Accrocco, BuzzNews Chicago

"Kelly Britt, whom I first saw in Let Me Entertain you: Jule Stynes’s Greatest Hits lights up the stage with her both her acting and singing plus.  Also, she is not hard on the eyes.  She has a crystal clear soprano voice and much stage presence. -Bob Douglas, Picturethispost.com

The Music Man, Contra Costa Musical Theatre, 2015

"… it’s Kelly Britt who wows the audience with her sugary-sweet voice in the role of Hill’s ultra-prim and proper love interest, Marian the librarian... The musicians sound plenty of sweet emotion for the barbershop quartet-style “Lida Rose” as well as for the romantic ballad, “Till There Was You,” perhaps the ultimate vehicle for Britt’s flawless expression of her character’s sugary voice." -Elizabeth Warnimont, Benicia Herald

The Marriage of Figaro, Cinnabar Opera, 2014

"Topping the list is Kelly Britt, whose take on Susanna...is absolutely marvelous. Charm and wit and grace and good humor simply pour out of her. Her presence brightens the stage every moment she's on it." -Patrick Thomas, talkinbroadway.com

"I want to particularly commend Kelly Britt and Eugene Walden as, respectively, Susanna and Figaro as those outstanding singers who were truly exemplary actors as well.  This is certainly not to say that other characters in this great ensemble piece weren’t extremely capable, but Kelly and Eugene were truly at the top, and this production is worth seeing, and hearing, just to see and hear them." -Richard Riccardi, Petaluma Patch

"Soprano Kelly Britt, as the young maid Susanna, glows with bright energy and has natural chemistry with her fiancé, Figaro (Eugene Walden), and with Countess Rosina (Bharati Soman) and a palpable revulsion for the skirt-chasing Count...Britt's powerful voice carried her through the opening night performance, growing lovelier and more nuanced as she relaxed into her role. Her Act III duet with the Countess...was a wonderful blending of two naturally lyrical voices. Her Act IV aria "Deh vieni," where she sings of love and confuses Figaro, was touching." -Geneva Anderson, ART hound

"The ensemble features lovely soprano Kelly Britt (Susanna)...I loved watching the expression of Britt's face as she deflected the Count's advances." -Cari Lynn Pace, Bestofbayarea.com

"Captivating" -Sonoma County Gazette

"An angelic voice...Britt's performance of Micaela's aria in Act III is lovely and impressive." –Yovanna Bieberich, Petaluma Argus Courier

"Beautifully sung by Kelly Britt, who has a laser-focused steely color to her voice that carries well up to her clear ringing Bs, and gives conviction to Micaëla's courage." –Vaida Falconbridge, Classical Sonoma

Don Giovanni, Cinnabar Opera, 2012 

"Soprano Kelly Britt as Donna Anna was striking—her distinctive voice was smooth, powerful, and evocative.  From the moment she appeared, she displayed a whirlwind of emotional extremes that made the impact of Donna Anna’s rape, or ravishing, by Don Giovanni and the sudden death of her father seem very real.   The twenty-three year-old has that extra something coursing through her that produces a riveting sound… and that’s very exciting to experience." –Geneva Anderson, ART hound

"Sopranos Kelly Britt and Emma McNairy have sweet voices to match their angelic looks." –Cari Lyn Pace, Marinscope

 "Emma McNairy as Zerlina and Kelly Britt’s Donna Anna are young singers whose pitch perfect performances make them ones to watch." –Richard Riccardi, Classical Sonoma

The Sound of Music, Contra Costa Musical Theatre, 2013

"Britt has an incredible stage presence and creates the Maria character perfectly." –Pat Craig, San Jose Mercury News

110 in the Shade, Cinnabar Theater, 2012

"Britt shines as the sharp-witted Lizzie. Most actresses may find it intimidating to recreate a role portrayed by 5 time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald who played the role of Lizzie In the 2007 Broadway Revival of “110". Yet, Britt succeeds at the challenge with her beautiful classical soprano vocals, and she wins over conman Bill Starbuck ”Rainmaker”, played by actor Tim Kniffin, with her rendition of “Simple Little Things." –St. James Theatre Review

"Britt has a powerful voice." –Katie Watts, Argus Courier

"There are marvelous moments here, from Starbuck's rousing entrance to Lizzie's spectacular, beautifully acted moment of self-discovery. As she finally sees her own inner beauty, Britt transforms before our eyes, suddenly glowing with delighted confidence...that one magical moment will be hard to forget." –David Templeton, Bohemian.com

Guys and Dolls, Broadway By the Bay, 2013

"(As Sarah Brown), Britt is a Charming breath of fresh air. It doesn't hurt that she sings like an angel. Her songs, especially "If I Were a Bell" and "I've Never Been in Love Before" seem genuine and sweet as if she really is falling in love." –San Jose Mercury News

White Christmas, Diablo Theatre Company, 2011

"(Tielle) Baker and Britt, who nail their characters perfectly, sing and dance like champs and charm even the most flint-hearted." –Pat Craig, San Jose Mercury News

"Kelly Britt lights up the stage as Betty Haynes." –Sally Hoggarty, Contra Costa Times

"Maybe the best musical number is when (Tom) Reardon and Britt both express their confusion and fears about love in a mashup of "How Deep is the Ocean" and "Love, You Didn’t Do Right by Me." –Martha Ross, Walnut Creek Patch
