Tim Jones knows theatre! He works brilliantly with writer, directors and actors alike and understands the nuances of programming and producing. He directed and produced the first ever Australian production of my play Transparency in a season that people still approach me to talk about. He is a consummate professional who artists can trust. – Suzie Miller (Prima Facie, Inter Alia, RGB: Of Many, One)
