"As leading lady of the company she gave time and energy to encouraging others and sets a standard of professional excellence. I worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company for many years and she reminded me of a young Judi Dench. Her industry, vision and application is remarkable. In person she is sweet natured, kindly, genuinely funny a young woman who wears her fierce determination and strength with touching modesty and elfin charm."

- the late Bille Brown  (Australian stage, film and television actor and acclaimed playwright, Member of the Order of Australia)
