Paris by Cole Porter
TheatreScene.net — April 20, 2008
"Paris...is an absolutely 100% delightful musical comedy with a clever book by Martin Brown and terrific performances all around." and "Parrish is fine as Cora’s strait-laced companion Brenda who has her eye on Andrew, and acquits herself well in their third act duets."
Paris by Cole Porter
Roberta Staats. Executive Director of the Cole Porter Trust
"We really enjoyed ourselves, and from the sidewalk chatter of the crowd, I think the rest of the audience did as well... Kudos to the cast for doing Porter proud."
Miss Witherspoon by Christopher Durang
Maine Sunday Telegram — March, 2007
"The supporting cast members elicit plenty of laughs as well. Parrish is a riot as Maryamma. Her wry delivery and subtle expressions nicely complement Mitchko's sarcastic rants."
Miss Witherspoon by Christopher Durang
The Times Record — March 22, 2007
"Calm and meditative, Maryamma evens out Veronicas forceful personality. Robyne Parrish shimmers across the stage exuding a peaceful presence. Her dry delivery provides much of the humor."
Miss Witherspoon by Christopher Durang
The Portland Phoenix — March 21, 2007
"Maryamma, (Robyne Parrish, sonorous and soothing)..."
Trouble in Shameland
NYTheatre.com — by Akia Squitieri — August 13, 2006
"... The true pleasure of this show are the inhabitants of Shameland (Chorus: Ryan Andes, Jana Ballard, Mathew Hardy, Liz O'Donnell, and Robyne Parrish). Their gusto and dedication to each part that they play, along with the group musical numbers and solos that occur within 'Shameland,' are delightful and fun."

Philadelphia Inquirer — by Desmond Ryan — December 6, 2005

'Rough Crossing', by Tom Stoppard floats merrily along Maine Public Theatre
Maine Sunday Telegram — by Steve Feeney — May 8, 2005
Rough Crossing — Maine Public Theatre
"Robyne Parrish and J.T. O'Connor are hilarious as the actors forced to re-create their own "affectation" (as one funny line has it). Their reading of the convoluted scene in act two is really the high point of the show."
'Rough Crossing' Comedy is light, silly...
Sun Journal — Lewiston/Auburn Maine — May 12, 2005
Rough Crossing — Maine Public Theatre
"Parrish and O'Connor are wonderfully melodramatic as the leading couple..."

"An Ideal Husband... An ideal comedy"
The Irish Echo — by Joe Hurley — Nov 12-18, 2003
Much Ado About Nothing — SRT at Sande Shurin Theatre
"This fine production of Wilde's 1895 social comedy has plenty of bright, committed acting from its mostly youthful cast... " "This quartet of central performances are handled with grace and enthusiasm... the swanlike Robyne Parrish as the ruthless returnee..."
Review: Fallen Angel
Backstage.com — by Michael Menachem — Summer 2003
"...Robyne Parrish's soothing voice was chilling, even after being licked by Lucifer."
OOBR
by Charles Battersby — 2003
Much Ado About Nothing — SRT at Sande Shurin Theatre
"...Both Benedick (PJ Sosko) and Beatrice (Robyne Parrish) were played superbly. The gorgeous, towering Robyne Parrish was perfectly cast as the barb-tongued Beatrice..."
***Energetic: 'Gamma Rays' Produces Plenty of Sparks and Satisfying Acting
Winston-Salem Journal — by Robert Workmon — Feb 13, 1998
"... The play's biting humor was easily and effectively tossed off by Robyne Parrish, who plays Beatrice, the embittered mother." "Parrish gave a virtuoso performance as the mother, swooping through the set in drunken fits of sarcasm and tears, free-flowing from the cracks in her armor." "... an extended scene in which Parrish, a half-gallon bottle of whisky in her hand, clumsily dances around the room, singing with the radio, in what becomes a dance of death... " "She is chilling in this last horrible strike at her daughters."
