Cinderella
"Kaitlyn Mayse, as Ella, showcases powerful vocals throughout the show and adds some spunk to the character, which is refreshing. Her dancing, singing, and stage presence are truly breathtaking." - Natasha Ashley, BroadwayWorld.com
"...truly a brilliant, illusory performance by Kaitlyn Mayse, who played Cinderella (aka Ella)...with Mayse, Lukas James Miller (Topher, the prince), and Zina Ellis (the fairy godmother) giving emotive, unflinching performances." - Priscilla Leung, Santa Barbara Independent
"As Cinderella, Mayse is an appealing, clear-voiced performer, and she exudes a quiet glow in the solo “In My Own Little Corner’’ while also doing a fine job in a pair of duets..." - Don Aucoin, The Boston Globe
"The talent onstage is what you'd expect from Broadway in Syracuse: first-rate. Kaitlyn Mayse as Ella is to the cinders born, as good as any Disney princess with a lovely voice and sincerity in her acting" - Linda Lowen, Syracuse Entertainment
"The blond, lithe Mayse as the title character is as romantic a figure as any child could wish for. Mayse delivers the songs (especially “In My Own Little Corner”) in a fine soprano and an assertive personality..." - Iris Fanger, The Patriot Ledger
Beauty and the Beast
"Belle, the beauty of the title, was a model of intelligence, warmth, and courage in the portrayal by Kaitlyn Mayse, who perceptively delineated the development of Belle's feeling for the beast" - Gerry Kowarsky, Two on the Aisle
"Jason Micheal Evans (the Beast) played quite well off of Kaitlyn Mayse’s independent Belle...Mayse’s superb voice shaped a number of the show’s tunes with beauty and grace" - Mark Bretz, Ladue News
1776
"Kaitlyn Mayse was a pleasure as Martha Jefferson both vocally and in the charming dance sequence with Franklin and Adams." - George Walker, Indiana Public Media
"Although the choral numbers were clear and strong, Kaitlyn Mayse brought a breath of fresh air as Martha Jefferson, and not a word was lost from the singing lead." - Lou Harry, Indianapolis Business Journal
Sweet Charity
"...especially by the performances of Kaitlyn Mayse (Helene) and Julia Thorn (Nickie) whose portrayal of Charity’s BFFs provide a fiery addition of girl-power that is only enhanced by their own superior levels of artistry. These women are what the stage has admirably labeled “triple-threats,” performers who excel in the area of dance, singing, and acting. The ideal trifecta that is only further enhanced by their ability to balance comedy with sex-appeal. Brava, ladies. Brava." - New Voices Opera
Greta
"As the title character in this catchy heartfelt musical, Kaitlyn Mayse presented Greta, a young woman at decision time in her life. Throughout the evening, her face expressed a panoply of emotions: love, humor, repulsion, anxiety, depression and elation." - Doris Lynch, The Herald Times
"Kaitlyn Mayse is quite precious as the dutiful Greta." - George Walker, Indiana Public Media
