From Show Biz Radio
(2/20/2006):
"Standouts include Martin Bestimt as Roger and Tim [othy R.] King as Carmen. Their scenes were laugh out loud funny, and creative despite the temptation to become cliched."
by McCall Doyle
Psycho Beach Party
From DC Theatre Reviews
(7/11/2006):
"Timothy King as Chicklet, the multiple personality psycho 'girl next door', was terrific."
by Joel Markowitz
Carrie Potter at the Half-Blood Prom
From Curtain Up
(2/20/2006):
"Timothy R. King stands out in his dual roles of Plucky the House Ghost and Miles the secret agent librarian."
by Rich See
Vlad Dracula
From The Frederick Gazette
(8/11/2005):
"Timothy R. King as Renfield was powerful and energetic in both song and the portrayal of his character. He showed the realistic emotions of a person struggling with mental anguish. His rendition of 'Renfield's Song,' in which he begged for freedom in exchange for his knowledge, gave touching and passionate insight into the nature of his situation."
by Carol Lewis
From Curtain Up(9/10/2005):
"Both Timothy King (Landless' Renfield) and Nicholas Allen (Synetic's) are similar in height, build and delivery of lines. ...Landless uses the character to highlight the more disturbed aspects of the play by having Mr. King's Renfield be truly dangerous not just to flies and birds but also the humans who are around him."

Gilligan's Island: The Musical
From Curtain Up
(6/11/2005):
"As Hollywood starlet Ginger Grant, Timothy R. King is very entertaining. Playing Ginger as a lusting, self-absorbed, semi-vixen he slinks around the stage with a long handkerchief and a sultry air. Still able to see a slight five o'clock shadow under his makeup and playing off his drag appearance, his gender-bending works to good advantage for occasional sight gags. The seduction scene where Ginger tries to get Ernie Achenbach's The Professor in bed is beaten only by the moment The Professor finally notices Miss Grant. ... Within the numbers, Mr. King's 'Natural Phenomenon'... Mr. Achenbach's 'Professor's Lament,' and the entire cast in 'Worlds Apart' and of course the 'Gilligan's Island Theme Song' all stand out."

La Cage Aux Folles
From Washington City Paper
(8/27/2004):
"Timothy King, as Albin, is a highlight throughout, displaying a real kind-heartedness beneath the fits and face paint."
by Anne Marson
From review4u (at hometown.aol.com/review4u)
(8/21/2004):
"Timothy King is magnificent in both his gay and attempted 'straight' postures and brings tears to the eyes with his inward struggle for acceptance in the former. He dances and sings perfectly to fulfill the character's nuances."
by Bob Anthony
Anything Goes
From review4u (at hometown.aol.com/review4u)
(7/1/2004):
"...it had a few cast members who were consistently excellent in song delivery and style. ...Timothy R. King, as the lead Billy, shows wonderful panache on stage which sells his character totally."
by Bob Anthony
From Potomac Stages
(7/2/2004):
"Three performances among the major roles deserve complimentary mention. ... Timothy R. King is a very appealing leading man in the role of the suitor masquerading as a gangster. His impish persona works very well in a 1930s setting."
Yeomen of the Guard
From The Washington Post
(11/2003):
"...an excellent production. The cast gives many fine singing and acting performances. Most notable is Timothy R. King as the melancholy jester Jack Point, whose collapse at the final curtain gives the play sudden, unexpected depth and dramatically alters the impact of the thematic song 'I have a song to sing, O!'"
by Joseph McLellan
From Potomac Stages
(11/2003):
"The real delight was Timothy R.. King as the jester. This role, requiring both comedic and dramatic abilities as well as a good enough voice and dexterity to handle the tongue twisters inevitably found in Gilbert's lyrics, gave him every opportunity to demonstrate diverse strengths. He met every challenge. His duet with the excellent Michael Galizia... was a delight."
Hedwig and the Angry Inch
From The Gazette
(7/2003):
"Hedwig (is) phenomenally played by MET company member Timothy R. King. ... King is fabulous. He doesn't play the role as a man dressed in women's clothing, or even as a woman dressed in an over-the-top fashion. Instead, King somehow achieves the reality of being both in one. King's unwavering vocal ability coupled with his ability to pull off both male and female tones and his ability to tell Hedwig's story using the voices from his/her past was most impressive. The American Sergeant Luther with his Southern drawl was easily distinguishable from the cold, German accent of Hedwig's mother and the burnt-out rocker sound of Hedwig's rockstar boyfriend, Tommy Gnosis. King executed the climatic ending unbelievably well, leaving the audience audibly silent after performing, by himself, an extremely emotional arguement between Gnosis and Hedwig."
by Lindsay Pack
The Rocky Horror Show
From The Gazette
(10/2001):
"As King entered the stage via the back of the audience, he was wrapped
in a dark silken [cape] singing 'Sweet Transvestite'. It wasn't until
the end of the song that we got our first glimpse of what was under the
sheath: a black teddy, fishnet stockings, and strategically placed lipstick
marks on his derriere. From head to toe, this character was perfectly
coiffed and reminded me of Johnny Depp if he were to be in drag.
His gorgeous green eyes and endearing smile were accented with makeup that
every woman wishes she could apply so well. Putting his astonishingly
good looks aside, King can sing, dance, and could bring down the house
in just about any play on Broadway or anywhere else for that matter.
From his appearance in 'The Rocky Horror Show', I would say that he is
a true gift to the acting world and anyone who can catch a performance
(and an autograph) before he experiences great fame should do so now."

Christmas at the Old Bull and Bush
2000-2001
From Intermission (1/2001):
"The two genuine
treasures who form the backbone of the show are Margie Tompros and Timothy
R. King. ... Mr. King is an absolutely brilliant comedian who has
a nice light tenor voice. Whether he is portraying a wooden dummy
during 'Sonny Boy', a Rudolph who got caught in the headlights... or a
naughty cheeky sailor, Mr. King has the audience eating out of his hands
and begging for more."

"Timothy R. King's every move is adorable."
by Bara Milon
From Arlington Weekly
News on Channel 33 (12/99):
"You'll love all the regulars... Timothy R. King with an adorable face
and devilishness."
by Rich Massabny
The Very Model of a Major Merry Music
Hall
From The Washington Post (6/99): "Still, those
occasions feature some exquisitely uproarious acting and impressive singing,
particularly from Legg, Grimes, McKinstry, David Neal, Tim Brierly, and
Timothy R. King."
by William Tripplet
Snow, like, White and the Dwarf
From The Gazette (5/98):
"AT's 'Snow
"like" White' is totally awesome... For once, this is a children's production
that adults will appreciate, as well."
by Susan Berlin
Christmas at the Old Bull and Bush
1998-1999
From Intermission (12/98):
"I couldn't take
my eyes off Timothy R. King, who hammed it up and stole many of the scenes
he was in just by flashing his sparkling eyes and gorgeous smile."
by Patti Crescenzi
From The Arlington Connection(12/98)
"Timothy R. King and Dori Legg throw themselves into the spirit of the
evening to such an extent that it's hard to believe that they aren't really
music hall veterans."
by Brad Hathaway
The Adventures of Raggedy Ann and
Andy
From The Journal (3/97): "Leonard
is portrayed hilariously by Timothy R. King--a combination of Charlie Chaplin
and Dudley Doright."
by Cathy Grubman
