OPERA REVIEWS

​Rosalinda in Die Fledermaus
​
"Kelley Hollis brought a neurotic energy to Rosalinda that really fit the character’s newer arc in the adaptation, and she balanced this with a voice that effortlessly floated over Strauss’ vocal writing with an ease that takes most professionals years to get." (Schmopera.com)

"Kelley Hollis, a staple of the local opera community, plays Rosalinda, and she continues to impress with her thrilling upper range. Her Czardas was a highlight..." (ArtsFuse.org)

​

​Eliza in Nico Muhly's Dark Sisters
​
"In the central role of the dubious wife Eliza, Kelley Hollis was the fulcrum of the evening...Hollis brought vocal strength and dramatic credibility to the role, singing with distinction and making Eliza’s struggle to assert herself and leave the ranch wholly believable and intensely compelling." (Chicago Classical Review)

"[A] special citation goes to Kelly Hollis who gave a tour-de-force performance as Eliza." (BerkshireFineArts.com)

"What a fantastic instrument...gut-wrenchingly powerful" (Opera Box Score episode ​31.x.16 | Show No. 46 |)

"Kelley Hollis was a wistful, open-eyed Eliza" (The Boston Globe)

"Hollis, as the wife who escapes yet cannot save her daughter, keeps the audience from utter despair as her soul’s wings strengthen." (NewCityStage.com)

​Mimi in Puccini's La femme bohème

"Kelley Hollis’s Mimi was well-acted and beautifully sung, particularly when she bloomed into the singing in Act 3. The top of the voice was simply round and stunning in its crescendo as the show went on.  This Mimi started out pretty ill, and Hollis perfected a terrifying-sounding wheeze." (The Theater Times)

"Kelley Hollis, was vocally supple and alluring." (The Boston Musical Intelligencer)

     

​Donna Anna in Mozart's Don Giovanni
​
"Kelley Hollis made the biggest impression of the night with a glorious tone that was always glowing" (Hub Review)

"Donna Anna [was] played with some skill by Kelley Hollis" (Arts Impulse)

"Kelley Hollis was especially touching, employing a more conversational tone to sound her character’s injured reflections" (The Boston Musical Intelligencer)

​Florencia in Daniel Catan's Florencia en el Amazonas

"Kelley Hollis (Florencia) has a big beautiful voice and did a brilliant job with the part both dramatically and vocally, looking every bit the polished performer." (The Boston Musical Intelligencer)
