"...a heartwarming journey through a range of emotions...highlighted by Shelly Burch..."" --Theresa Goffredo, The Herald
"...the radiant Shelly Burch is expressive and utterly natural in her two monologues and also scores handsomely with her featured vocal solos, especially "We Would Have Been Fine", a contemplative number about a woman's affecting encounter with a past lover." --David-Edward Hughes, Talkin' Broadway
"...giving the wonderful Shelly Burch a chance to combine her terrific singing voice and equally strong acting. Her dramatic authority is also evident." --Jerry Kraft, Seattle Actor
"...in "Love Is Love" now at Village Theatre's First Stage, Burch shines with her wonderful voice and graceful dancer's body." --Kathleen R. Merrill, Issaquah Press
"...a terrific cast of 5 women...superbly elevating "Love Is Love" at The Maltz Jupiter Theatre...a bright standout was Burch who is now sleeker and with matured performing presence and who displays some terrific acting skills and has a lovely singing voice. She has vocal power to spare." Hap Erstein, The Palm Beach Post
"...Burch is truly tested and up to the challenge of moving from one characterization to the next in the course of the evening. She is charged to play the part of 12 different women expressing or examining the complicated aspects of love at different times in her life." Carol Saunders, Jupiter Courier
