"Tara Pacheco makes Keisha’s descent into paranoia and body horror completely believable and deeply distressing to watch."
"...her aching performance is perfectly scaled, so big that you think she might burst."
"Tara Pacheco is a graceful and ingenious Sally Hemings, trying to make the best of her situation."

Thomas and Sally, 2017
Nominated best principle actress in a play by the Bay Area Theater Critics Circle
"Tara Pacheco from New York is outstanding as Sally Hemings. She plays the role as a childlike young woman."
Sam Hurwitt | Marin Independent Journal
“Thomas and Sally” sparkles with great roles, including the subtle portrayal of Sally Hemings by Tara Pacheco, who brings individuality, reflection, and grace to the role. Her Sally deserves a play to herself."

"Bradshaw and director Minadakis…guaranteed I could walk away with more positive things to write about by ‘casting' Tara Pacheco as a charming, forward-thinking Sally"
