“Julie Lyn Barber embodies women as diverse as Typhoid Mary, Amelia Earhart, and Mary Stuart but she really stands out as Sybil singing "I Am My Own Best Friend.""

" Barber's singing is spectacular."

Laurence Brown,
Nuvo

Julie Lyn Barber is clearly a highly gifted artist. Indeed, her portrayal of various influential female leaders through history - including Cleopatra, Indira Gandhi, Margaret Thatcher and Hillary herself - displays an extraordinary accent range as well as obvious singing prowess.

Whodunit...The Musical...an audaciously campy theatrical experience that blends elements of an old-fashioned murder mystery with the exuberant, over-the-top energy seen in musical parodies like “Reefer Madness.” ...The enthusiastic Actors Theatre of Indiana cast happily chomps away at the scenery while also upholding solid musical numbers that help propel the narrative forward. Each embraces the eccentricities of their role under the astute direction of Julie Lyn Barber.

Daniel Shock,
A Seat on the Aisle, Hamilton County Reporter
