Valiant and vulnerable.

Arresting… Kinsolving brings humanity to the text.
– LA Weekly


Kinsolving is especially adroit at physical comedy and commanding a vocal dynamic that runs the gamut from clarinet-like subtlety to bassoon-sounding octave drops.
– Back Stage


Smart, gifted, and charming.
– The UK Spectator


Kinsolving gives a tour de force performance. She’s brassy, ballsy and amusingly awkward as the modern-day actress, but refined and intriguing as the 19th century novel heroine.

From her first entrance, Kinsolving owns the stage. She’s smart, freely sexy, and, even more to the point, relentlessly spontaneous.

Outstanding.

The casting of Kinsolving in the lead role is absolute perfection.

I have seen other productions of this play with the role played by Tammy Grimes, Maggie Smith, and Elizabeth Taylor. It is a role than an actress dreams of playing. Here, it is played by Caroline Kinsolving in a performance that more than holds up against the previously mentioned ladies. You can see what she is thinking in every moment in Kinsolving’s performance.

I can say unequivocally that Caroline Kinsolving’s mad scene was the best I’ve ever seen. Better than Ruth Negga’s recent turn on Broadway, better than Frances McDormand’ recent turn on screen. Her choices were perfect and compelling.

Perfect for the role. She even has a resemblance to Donna Murphy…She has a tony, classy thing going.

An absolutely first-class, memorable and daring performance!

She is really, really good…a wonderful artist.
