Reviews
Smudge in Stuart Ross' Forever Plaid with Musical Theatre Heritage
"The MTH production of FOREVER PLAID features four local performers who would not be outclassed anywhere you might catch this show... Not only can these guys sing, they are super comedians and pretty good dancers."
"This cast does a great job of carrying through on the jokes. They have managed expertly to create four distinct personalities."
Alan Portner, Broadway World- Kansas City, February 9, 2020
Nick Bottom in Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream with Hawaii Performing Arts Festival
"Timothy Madden as Bottom is manic, and maniacally funny. As he sings with his head changed into a donkey’s, his voice seems to break involuntarily into a bray as he kicks up his heels. His impressive physical comedy skills performed while singing in a rich bass/baritone made him an audience favorite."
Meizhu Lui, July 15, 2019,
Simone in Puccini's Gianni Schicchi with ARE Opera
"Timothy Madden's deeply resonant bass-baritone was just right for the role of Simone, the eldest and the wisest among the family."
Meche Kroop, Voce di Meche, November 2017
Sir Despard Murgatroyd in Gilbert and Sullivan's Ruddigore with Theater at Monmouth
"Madden’s Despard vamps in classic evil style, with long, pale, spindly fingers and diabolical laughter, as he schemes 'to live a blameless life! Muahahah!'"
Megan Grumbling, The Portland Pheonix, September 2015
"Timothy Madden makes Sir Despard Murgatroyd's transformation from classic horror movie villain to respectable husband believable without overdoing and evidences a fine baritone."
Carla Maria Verdino-Süllwold, Talkin' Broadway, September 2015
"This is Madden’s TAM debut, and it’s an excellent comic performance."
David A. Sargent, Sun Journal, September 2015
Nick Bottom in Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream with Chicago Summer Opera
"Bass-baritone Timothy Madden essayed a terrific Bottom, both vocally and theatrically, and obtained the largest laughs of the evening by playing Bottom’s transformation into an ass for truth, rather than parody."
Aaron Hunt, Newcity Stage, July 2015
"No production of Midsummer would be complete without a great Bottom, and Timothy Madden offers an endlessly fun, full- voiced, totally physicalized portrayal. His work anchors the strong work done by the motley crew of artisans as they struggle to create a production of Pyramus and Thisbe."
Julie S. Halpern, Chicago Stage Standard, July 2015
Bass soloist in Bach's G minor Mass with AGO Schola Cantorum and KC Baroque Consortium
"Timothy Madden sang the baritone solo, Gratias agimus tibi, with a devotional command of the room."
"He was clear, moved through timbres without notice, and maneuvered through Bach's florid lines as if he were taking a stroll."
Floyd E. Gingrich, KC Metropolis, May 2014
