Some Press:
"'Henry IV, Part 1' was especially enhanced by the electric turns of Brandon Carter as Hal and KP Powell as the prince’s soldier-rival, Hotspur, who exists on a kind of testosterone overload...the actors clashed with a dazzling athleticism, as well as a perceptive command of the emotions churning within each of them." - Henry IV Pt. 1
Peter Marks - The Washington Post
"Robblee and Powell are an absolute blast. Powell’s comic delivery, facial expressions, and overall ease complement Robblee’s compelling Beatrice....They are ideal casting"
Susan D. Harper - On Stage Colorado
Anchoring this production is K.P. Powell’s turn as the Dark Scot...Powell’s panic at the ghostly consequences of his string of murders...is as visceral and panic-stricken as I have ever seen.
Andrew Walker White - DC Theater Arts
...and Lysander (K.P. Powell) is so well cast. All of these actors have pulled new and original takes on these lines and characters, making them fresh. The acting is quite physical, sliding down the entry stairs, lifted as if enchanted (strong corework), jumps, hops, kicks, and tackles. They are such professionals.
Liz Eichler - League of Cincinnati Theatres
"Powell is a devilish delight as the power-hungry Earl." -Henry VI Pt. 1
Matthew J. Palm - Orlando Sentinel
Young George Gibbs, who can seem feckless and empty-headed in the wrong hands, was provided with a beguiling sense of fun by K. P. Powell. - Our Town
P.J. O'Rourke - New Hampshire Magazine
"Powell gets Mardonius’ nobility, but more importantly, his shrewdness; you can see, by the way Powell moves his head and eyes, how Mardonius is calculating his room to maneuver." - A King and No King
Tim Treanor: DC Theatre Scene
"Powell’s performance is well executed as it leads off with anecdotes of Marshall’s early life...His delivery is impressive, composed of a fluid continuity that seamlessly transitions from decade to decade as the character ages." - Thurgood
Kevin Evans: Asheville Stages
"...the villa’s owner Anthony Wilding (K.P. Powell) add(s) more charm and romance to the mix to make 'Enchanted April' totally enchanting."- Enchanted April
Judy Harrison: Bangor Daily News
"KP Powell is marvelous as Thomas Jefferson. His powerful tenor voice soars in “But, Mr. Adams” and “The Egg.” His argument scene with...Adams is dynamic" - 1776
Tony Annicone: Theater Mirror
"Slender only speaks three lines in this scene...The gag has never made sense to me on the page and has never worked on a stage--until now...Powell scores the scene's exit laugh." - Merry Wives of Windsor
Eric Minton: Shakespeareances
"KP Powell in the role of devilish painter Clarke offers up big laughs from his preposterous murder formulas to his sidesplitting use of protective glasses."- The Arden of Faversham
CM Gorey: C-ville Weekly
"Atticus has been assigned an unwinnable case - that of Tom Robinson (a heartbreakingly fine [KP] Powell)" - To Kill A Mockingbird
Andrea Braun: The Vital Voice
