"Wilson’s production is backed by a talented cast game for anything, especially Perry’s scene-stealing Audrey." C.M. Crockford - BSR

Macbeth
Delaware Shakespeare "With its strong concept and compellingly delivered language, this Del Shakes production is certainly worth a trip to the Scottish heath that’s been created on Rockwood’s ostensibly haunted grounds." Gail Obenreder, Broad Street Review "Perry’s Duncan is affable but politically astute, and Perry and Gardner transform the meeting between Duncan and Lady Macbeth in Act I, Scene 4 into a delightfully sharp-edged battle of wills. Perry is also double-cast as Hecate – or perhaps Duncan is double-cast as Hecate, as the production’s extensive supernatural motifs blur the lines between characters, reality, and death itself." Jennifer Kramer, Play Shakespeare |

Alligator-a-phobia in 3D
Boston Playwrights' Theatre "In this dramedy, a naive, young couple moves to alligator-infested southern Florida swampland. Nature photojournalist Sweetness (the charming Katherine Perry) makes the change with enthusiasm" - NE Theatre Geek, Gillian Daniels "“Alligator-a-Phobia in 3D!” is as shocking as it is meaningful. In the show, cartoonishness intentionally masks fear, speaking to a post-pandemic audience. Simultaneously a dream, nightmare, and blues concert, “Alligator-a-Phobia in 3D!” manages coherent disjointedness and delightful absurdity, making it worth the watch." The Crimson, Aiden J. Bowers |

Waiting For Lefty
Quintessence Theatre Group "There is great chemistry between Katherine Perry and Daniel Melo, who play internally struggling Florrie and utterly resigned Sid. Perry and Melo convey a profound sense of sadness and loss that is heartbreaking. " Rebecca Rendell, Talkin' Broadway "All praises to the actors who bring a multidimensional perspective to their characterizations." Cameron Kelsall, Broad Street Review "Perry shows a vulnerability as Florrie that really rings true." - Delco Culture Vultures, Ellen Wilson Dilks "The actors do a fine job." - phindie , Kathryn Osenlund |

Mother Courage and Her Children
Subscension Theatre
"Katherine Perry is a powerhouse as Mother Courage, leading an ensemble of nine fellow actors through this chronicle of twelve years of war. She is compelling to watch as she prowls the playing area showing Mother’s determination to survive. Her voice is equally powerful as she sings Brecht’s various songs in the script. Her performance of “The Great Capitulation” is amazing. "
Ellen Wilson Dilks, Delco Culture Vultures
"Mother Courage (the commanding Katherine Perry) could be pulling her rickety wagon across any battlefield past, present, or future...Perry exhibits enviable stamina in the massive role, playing Courage as a seductive yet conflicted creature who wrestles with her own sense of moral equivocation. Rarely have I been so struck by the internal struggle of this character as she tries to marry a sense of compassion to her convictions as a businesswoman."

"A strong supporting cast adds to the silliness, led by Katherine Perry in multiple roles as a cowboy troubadour, an angry bull, and a befuddled horse."
Broad Street Review
"Many of the actors portray an array of wacky animals in addition to other roles and do so with ease. Katherine Perry wields her banjo and ballads wonderfully as The Tunester."

Animal Farm
"Perry brings what could easily be an inaccessibly sweet, idealistic, and patriotic workhorse to life, playing expertly with a world of personal tics and idiosyncrasies of voice, playing expertly with a world of personal tics and idiosyncrasies of voice....the final 30 minutes or so are so excellently executed, culminating in the truly moving death of Boxer."

"Katherine Perry’s slow, clear readings, with a touch of Milne’s (or Disney’s) Eeyore is her voice, makes her Boxer stand out...Perry makes you care about Boxer as she tries to understand all that happens around him while following through obligingly to any order, assignment, or task...Even Perry’s movements make earns her special kudos among a good cast. Her walk and pace as Boxer match the slow but sure way Perry’s Boxer speaks. Perry makes you attentive and sympathetic to her characters in ways none of the others do. She endows Boxer with consistency and dimension that allows the character to transcend the role he plays on Napoleon’s farm and Orwell’s page to affect us and let us see the human, or animate, side of what is happening."

The Homosexuals
"Katherine Perry brings a hard but loving edge to the buoyantly sad Tam, the perpetually-single “hag” of the group who gave up on a university career to work in the public school system."
Phindie
"...the sparks truly fly when we are treated to the scenes involving Ms. Perry."
"Ms. Perry performs a remarkable tango, ensuring that the over-the-top character of Tam doesn’t come off as simply a dramatic “hag” but rather as a person who so deeply longs for acceptance that she’ll sacrifice her well being for others."
