"...the [JET Theatre] has a gift for you this holiday season, and her name is Annie Keris."
- Martin F. Kohn, Handle with Care
"Her portrayal [of Lady Macbeth] is simply brilliant. She takes Shakespeare's language and wraps it around her fingers to deliver a ferocious performance that would have made The Bard himself quiver."
- The Oakland Press, Macbeth
"With razor-sharp comic timing and lyrical sincerity, she deftly navigates Mee's poetry and, when all is said and done, does no less than anchor the show..."

"Incredible!!!!"
"Such a wonderful series! Thank you for making it available. I read the books years ago but the audio truly brought it to life. The narrator[was] awesome- gifted with the accents!!!"
- Audible Review, Renegades in Time (The After Cilmeri Series)
"Keris balances...perfectly with her steadfastness and by being the very picture of all that [her lover] knows he wants and worries he doesn’t have."
- EncoreMichigan, The Rivals
"Annie Keris is great as Agafya. She has a range that is funny, smart, timid and delicate..."
- The Oakland Press, Marriage
"[A]s the resolute Lady Macbeth, Keris' premeditation is spellbinding: Her thoughts dart ever ahead, even as she initially reels with fear at the ease of her deadly cunning. Through a swift cascade into cold, irreversible conviction, every furtive motive clearly telegraphed to the viewer, hers is the most revealing and gripping arc of the production. "
"The star of this production, however, is the incredible Annie Keris as Lady Macbeth. Her portrayal as Macbeth’s confidant, lover, wife and co-conspirator is simply brilliant. She takes Shakespeare’s language and wraps it around her fingers to deliver a ferocious performance that would have made The Bard himself quiver."

"...simply superb. With razor-sharp comic timing and lyrical sincerity, she deftly navigates Mee's poetry and, when all is said and done, does no less than anchor the show (and oh, the tomatoes!)."

Macbeth
"Annie Keris's Lady Macbeth resists the villainous monolith we've come to expect and lends a complexity and vulnerability that provides a richer trajectory for this character than I think Shakespeare originally gave her."
