“Jones provides a comedic balance and a crystal clear soprano.”
- League of Cincinnati Theatres
“It’s not a matter of being louder or more outrageous or brassier. Indeed, some of the most compelling acting comes from Jones, who is so low key you sometimes wonder if she’s acting at all.”

“Jones outdoes herself here, in both speech and action, and her singing voice is very powerful, especially in “This is the moment when I say goodbye to everything.”
- The Five Points Star
"Through her comedic SNL-like performance, Jones creates a community where women in the audience feel seen and more importantly, respected."
- City Beat
“My Geriatric Uterus had me feeling so very SEEN that I was SHOOK."

"MY GERIATRIC UTERUS is by turns humorous, tender, and exultant, but it’s always got guts. If you have a uterus, have had a uterus, or ever loved someone with a uterus, this is a Fringe show you won’t want to miss."
