Who does she play?

In Shakespeare: tragic queens, ghost queens, vengeful queens. In avant-garde expressionist works: usually, the crazed damsel. In frothy period comedies: the silly, giggling drunk (…or the ghost). In modern dramas: the demure one with hidden rage.

“Caroline Johnson… ably balances courtly presence and vulnerability.” — John Geoffrion, DC Theatre Scene

“[She]… is memorable, in part because of the balance between dignity and vulnerability she has to project.”— Andrew White, Broadway World

“As Queen Isabel, Caroline Johnson displayed a tender attachment to Richard, and her sorrow at their parting was affecting and real.”— Sophia Howes, DC Metro Theater Arts

“Caroline Johnson sparkled in an assortment of very different parts!”— Jack L.B. Gohn, Broadway World Baltimore
