"Your sensitive portrayal...was the perfect kick-off to our month-long series of events for Women's History Month. While the performance most closely paralleled events in The Yellow Wallpaper, it gave us a glimpse into the complex, creative mind that created Herland....We hope you continue to take this wonderful one-woman show across the country. Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a woman everyone should get to know—your performance helped students, community members and even administrators here at the University of Wisconsin—La Crosse do just that."

"Your performance was brilliant! One of the emails I received from a top manager stated, “That was a terrific performance and a great learning experience.” So you certainly left a lasting impression on the employees here at NARA. I will definitely keep you in mind when talking to my colleagues about possible programs at their agencies.

"Timmons' characterization was so persuasive... This wonderful actress creates a ... passionate social crusader, ... [a] brilliant, perceptive woman."

"...a well-nuanced performance that never flags. The show also has broad appeal, from feminist literati to general audiences. From a presenter's perspective, the show is a dream—-completely flexible, minimal technical requirements, adaptable to almost any space."
Jon Palmer Claridge
Director of Performing Arts
Arlington (VA) Cultural Affairs Division
"Your presentation achieved just what we want for our programming...: a performance that is exciting, entertaining, and, most important, educational. Your sensitive portrayal of this female reformer made us acutely aware, almost a hundred years later—near the dawn of the twenty-first century, of the contemporaneity of Gilman's turn-of-the-twentieth-century concerns on the subject of women's issues."
Jewell Robinson
Public Program Director
National Portrait Gallery
"The evening was an unqualified success. Ms. Timmons is a deft playwright who has managed to convey the life of writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman in a fast-moving, consistently interesting dramatic monologue... As an actress, she is a marvel."
