For CAMELOT:
“Splendid and Entertaining! Kelly Strandemo as Guenevere is the definition of the Broadway ingénue - as lovely to listen to as to look at...”
Dan Shaw
CT's Rural Intelligence
For CAMELOT:
"Kelly Strandemo as Guenevere, and Al Bundonis as King Arthur, carry the show with their strong voices and impish expressions"
Jennifer Kronholm
The Lakeville Journal
For "ONE, TWO, WHATEVER YOU DO ...boasts some of the finest acting I've ever seen at FringeNYC. As the chorus, Becker, Perez, and Strandemo demonstrate versatility and a range as they take on multiple personas on the turn of a dime..."

For LUCKY STIFF:
"Kelly Strandemo is one of Harry's inheritance rivals (from a canine welfare charity) and his eventual love interest. She has the best musical moment with the simple and sweet 'Times Like This.'."
Joseph McDonough
Cincinnati Enquirer
For FUENTE OVEJUNA:
"Jane May and Kelly Strandemo encapsulate a female strength as they rally the women, maenad-like, to tear the commander to pieces. ...The strength of every member of the Ducdame Ensemble makes them a company to watch. I cannot wait to see what they have to offer next."
Jared R. Pike

For YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN:
“...poignant and funny “You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown,” with a superb cast including the very, very, vee-e-ry crabby Lucy, played expertly by Kelly Strandemo..."
Beth Satter
Conway Daily Sun
For MY FAIR LADY:
“Though the stars of the show are wonderful, bit players ...enhance every aspect of the production surrounding them... [E]very one of these actors shines. ...Kelly Strandemo, Susan Terner and Corey Wiesner all deserve a mention and a round of applause.”
Amy Tagliaferri
Cape Cod Chronicle
For THE CONGRESSWOMEN:
"The classic play...shines with some modern updates. Ducdame Ensemble is a female-driven powerhouse."

For BELLES:
“Marisa Viola's direction gives the production admirable pace, and the six actors are as engaging. ...Strandemo also has some endearing moments as Audrey.”
Ron Cohen
Backstage
For BELLES:
"As whimsical as these characters are, it is not their quirks, but WHY they have those quirks that is gripping, and enchanting. Kelly Strandemo as Audrey ...did a 180-degree turn in the second [act] and transformed into one of the most compelling characters. Perhaps the best scene in the play was her conversation with 'Aneece" where, sitting in the bathtub she truly seemed like a frightened little girl, who, though she grew up, had never truly combated her childhood demons."

For THIRDS:
“The most comedic of the three sisters is Maya, a directionless artist whose imagination runs wild with elaborate daydreams. Strandemo bursts out in wide-eyed, large-gestured dramatics that make you chuckle (just wait until you hear about “baby sister Cordelia” and the baboon) because she reminds you of every attention-seeking baby of the family.”
Amanda Mashack

For THIRDS:
"Maya (the delightful Kelly Strandemo) is still the baby of the bunch"
