For her performance in After Miss Julie at Donmar Warehouse (2003-2004) She was nominated for the Laurence Olivier Award.

She was educated at Tolworth Girls' School in Kingston where she took GCSE drama. Her parents are Irish. Reilly wrote to the producers of the tv drama Prime Suspect to ask for work. Six months later she auditioned a role in an episode of Prime Suspect 4: Inner Circle that aired on ITV on May 7, 1995. She was a part of an episode of "Bramwell", a period drama on television, which starred in the role of Kathleen Le Saux, a unhappy young wife. Six years later, she was reunited with Helen Mirren in Last Orders. She collaborated with Terry Johnson on four productions that included Elton John's Glasses (1997), The London Cuckolds (1998), The Graduate (2000) and Piano/Forte (2006). Johnson composed Piano/Forte for her, and she said, "Kelly is possibly the most natural, dyed in the wool deep-in-the-bone actor I've collaborated with." Reilly claims that Karel Resz, who directed her in The Yalta Game (Dublin) in 2001, taught her the most about acting. She added "He was my mentor. Without that performance it's impossible I would have been able to do Miss Julie.
