Reviews (Director)
The Pirates of Penzance
​​
Boston Light Opera (MA)
​
“A Splendid New G & S “Pirates
Director Kathleen Huber’s PIRATES OF PENZANCE is delightfully, wittily focused. She approaches PIRATES with reverent irreverence, giving the show a bright, snappy pace, full of clever asides, double-takes, and tremendous vitality. And all that enthusiasm makes for an irresistible entertainment.”
– The Christian Science Monitor
“Kathleen Huber’s canny and inventive direction enlivened the proceedings with a number of clever and original concepts that make American brand Gilbert and Sullivan even more interesting than the imported British style.”

The Mousetrap
​​
Arrow Rock Lyceum Theatre (MO)​
​
“Lyceum’s “The Mousetrap” delivers humor, mystery in classic whodunnit.
The Lyceum Theatre is presenting this classic mystery in a splendidly-performed production that engages and entertains.
Kathleen Huber’s direction is wonderfully assured, and I found myself completely involved and on the edge of my seat while anticipating the final plot twist."
– KDHX Your Community
“Contemporary players must create tension while saying lines that may seem old-fashioned in the years since THE MOUSERAP opened in 1952. But director Kathleen Huber has her actors play up the tropes in the beginning and then sober up for the final scenes. The result is a playful romp and an exciting murder mystery in one.”

The Yeomen of the Guard
​​
U.C.S.B. Music Bowl (CA)
​
“YEOMEN" Yields Superior Product
Delightful music, beautiful weather, a strong cast, and an intimate setting contributed to a superior production that blossomed under the guiding hand of director Kathleen Huber, who turned the Music Bowl itself into a convincing Tower of London.”
– Santa Barbara News-Press
“This weekend is the last chance to see the highly-acclaimed musical comedy THE YEOMEN OF THE GUARD. Directed by Kathleen Huber, the sparkling Gilbert and Sullivan operetta is presented in the outdoor setting of the Music Bowl. Buy tickets well in advance, as seating is limited!”

Not Time’s Fool
​​
The Playbox (NYC)
​
The True Face of Love is Revealed
​
“NOT TIME’S FOOL is a collection of seven great love scenes: conceived, performed and directed by Jerome Martin and Kathleen Huber. It is a thoroughly delightful evening of romantic theatre. Mr. Martin and Ms. Huber deserve praise for providing an evening of rare entertainment that goes beyond the great literary material they have to work with. The production is sheer perfection.”
– Show Business
“In scenes from Shakespeare, Congreve, Rostand, Ibsen, Wilde, Gilbert and Sullivan and Noel Coward, the handsome production was altogether wonderful.”

A Phoenix Too Frequent
​​
The Dove Company (NYC)
​
A Charming Play from Christopher Fry!
​
“A very nice treat awaited me in the second play of the evening; Christopher Fry’s delightful; A PHOENIX TOO FREQUENT.
An especially pleasant surprise was newcomer Kathleen Huber’s directing. She has a wonderful sense of timing and, most important, she made the three performers give everything they had.”
