Review for The Crucible"McCready's Abigail was a force from her first appearance in Act 1." - Stephen Marino, Arthur Miller Journal
Review for Bigger Than You, Bigger Than Me"McCready's Adele externalizes her anxiety from the first, and cultivates it as time passes –smoking, de-piling her sweater, fidgeting with her cuffs and fingers; she does convey the panic that accompanies the terror of an inexplicable and even admittedly implausible foreboding." - Fred Cohen, Women Around Town
Reviews for Appropriate"As River, Kelly McCready does a wonderful send-up of a hippy new ager who receives the brunt of the physical violence... Intense, topical, hard hitting, life altering." - Mark Horning
"Franz... has come to atone for past indiscretions at the encouragement of his young vegan girlfriend, River (a charming Kelly McCready)... This production is populated with superb actors turning in memorable performances under the always-forward momentum of Nathan Motta’s direction." - News Herald "[Director Nathan Motta] has chosen a superlative cast. These performers know how to milk everything out of Jacobs-Jenkins's writing. Both the cast and the audience are wrung dry of emotions at the last blackout... Kelly McCready [is] character perfect, nicely texturing [her] role." - Roy Berko "Ursula Cataan and Kelly McCready are completely invested as the significant others who get more than they bargained for at this family reunion." - Land of Cleve |
Reviews for The Execution of Mrs. Cotton"Shards of grotesque surrealism occasionally poke through, most notably when the feral child Hollermoppet (Kelly McCready) turns up, lips sewn together, reminding us of the inventively macabre musical Shockheaded Peter." - Elisabeth Vincentelli, The New York Times
"The most terrifying character is Hollermoppet (an unrecognizable Kelly McCready), a demon slave child whose mouth is stitched shut. Without the benefit of being able to speak, Ms. McCready is spooky as Hell as she repeatedly shows up to cart away the dead." - Stanford Friedman, Front Row Center Reviews for The New Morality“Kelly McCready as Betty’s French maid Lesceline is a study in proper behavior, but despite that manages to get across her true feelings.” - Victor Gluck, Theatre Scene
"The acting, with Jonathan Bank’s tender mercies as director, is perfect. The ensemble are all excellent and accomplished, including Kelly McCready as the maid, Lesceline, and Douglas Rees as a dedicated manservant, Wooten." - Tamara Beck, Our Theater Blog "The cast expertly crafts a world on the brink of change delivering elegant performances with great attention to detail of accent, physicality and class... All the while the servants, Wooten (Douglas Rees) and Lesceline (Kelly McCready), look on and contain the upper-class spectacle with quiet authority.” - Jacquelyn Claire, NY Theatre Guide "The servant roles are handled effortlessly by Douglas Rees and Kelly McCready." - What's On Off Broadway |
