"Robyn Kemp is a startling talent, new to The Theater At Monmouth. Kemp has delighted audiences at the Boston Pops, the Pasadena Symphony and in New York as Miranda in "The Tempest." Kemp has movie star beauty and an opera star's tonsils. Her Josephine is a pure crystal carving of work." |

Praise for Robyn Kemp in Bookends
(click the newspaper title to see the full article)Jenny Vallancourt and Robyn Kemp as the characters' younger selves have the dead-on starry-eyed determination to make their nonconformist passions credible.
…acted with refreshing vigor by an appealing cast… Jenny Vallancourt makes a worldly Leona and Robyn Kemp a girl-next-door Mady.
The pairs of actors - Ms. Bob with Ms. Vallancourt and Ms. Goldpaugh with Ms. Kemp - are joined at the soul. They grow more and more alike through the show. Vallancourt and Kemp carry the show musically, and a list of the highlights would fill this page. Their duets - there are six - are sung beautifully and are perfectly blended in words and music.
Back-to-back duets with hopeful suitors - Vallancourt's with Eric Collins and Kemp's with Matt Golden - burst with youthful energy.
… the cast is phenomenal - especially the two young leads (Jenny Vallancourt as the Young Leona and Robyn Kemp as the Young Mady).
Robyn Kemp is utterly winning as Young Mady.
….an excellent cast, all of whom sing well— especially Jenny Vallancourt, as the young bespectacled, serious-minded Leona and Robyn Kemp, as the young and vivacious Mady.
….with Jenny Vallancourt and Robyn Kemp, radiating their exuberance touchingly, as young Leona and young Mady, respectively.
