In early 2023, Timothy directed and conceived She’s Got Harlem On Her Mind, Three One Act Plays by Eulalie Spence. The production ran Off-Off Broadway at The Metropolitan Playhouse, from February 16 -March 12th. Darryl Reilly, the theater critic for theaterscene.org placed this production in the number 1 slot of his 2023 Best List, saying “The best show of the year played for three weeks in a small East Village theater. She’s Got Harlem on Her Mind was a program consisting of a short play and two one-acts by the Black writer Eulalie Spence (1894–1981). Ms. Spence was a leading figure of the Harlem Renaissance who wrote a series of dramatic works in the 1920s, several of which received awards from Black literary magazines and at playwriting contests. These were performed by a small theater company in a Harlem public library. Due to that era’s racism and sexism, Spence’s career did not progress in the mainstream commercial theater industry. “Eulalie Spence was the most influential force in my life” said the Public Theater’s founder Joseph Papp, who was a high school English student of hers. Blending humor with pathos, She’s Got Harlem on Her Mind’s three plays are a valuable and affirmative document of the past Black American experience and a testament to Eulalie Spence’s prowess as an unheralded dramatist. The show was presented by the noble New York City-based theater company the Metropolitan Playhouse, which sadly disbanded this year. Alas, the production did not transfer or lead to a renewed appreciation of Spence by contemporary cultural arbiters. My criteria for inclusion in this subjective annual numerical roundup are those shows which initially impressed me and that have stayed on my mind.”

Following this production, Timothy served as the Associate Director of Destiny of Desire, written by Karen Zacarías and directed by Ruben Santiago-Hudson at The Old Globe Theater in San Diego from May 19th to June 25, 2023.

From October 25th to October 31, 2023, Timothy was invited again by Ruben Santiago-Hudson, Director, to be his Associate Director for a writers workshop of The Ten, a new musical, with music by Future Cut, the songwriting/producing duo of Lyiola Babatunde Babalola & Darren Lewis, lyrics by Emily Phillips, book by Nambi E. Kelley, and produced by Ken Davenport. The show is aiming for a Broadway production in the near future.
