A Little Night Music
​
Opera Cleveland (OH)
Kalliope Stage (OH)
​
“But the drop-dead wonderful performance is turned in by Kathleen Huber. Clipping her words with such crisp enunciation that the edges fairly gleam, she explains in the lovely and trenchant ‘Liaisons’ how times have changed. Huber is worth the price of admission – and maybe a couple of extra bucks on the way out.”

“As Madame Armfeldt, Kathleen Huber stole the show, dispensing opinions in a husky voice that signaled a life paved with luxuries. In ‘Liaisons’, Huber wrung every nuance from Madame Armfeldt’s description of her horizontal life.”
– Opera News
“Kathleen Huber presented Madame Armfeldt – the crotchety and majestic lady who has led such an ‘interesting’ life – with perfect fair and perfectly nuanced readings of her every line, spoken or sung.”
– The Sondheim Journal

“But the heart of the show is the eldest romance. Damian Buzzerio is heartbreaking, and Kathleen Huber is even more so. Her solo ‘What Would You Do?’ is bone-chilling. Their scenes together are the show’s emotional high spots.”
– Hartford Courant
​
“An absolutely riveting, stunning, heartbreaking performance by NYC’s Kathleen Huber, who deftly steals the show with her wrenchingly nuanced performance. To experience her work is to witness the highest caliber master class of detail and economy, and worth the price of admission many times over."
– Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts

“Kathleen Huber does elegantly by Henry’s worldly-wise and sympathetic mother.”
– John Simon, The Westchester Guardian
​
“The charming Kathleen Huber is privilege and sophistication incarnate, but champions Eliza’s plight with heart and a witty tongue,”
– Planet Vero
​
“Kathleen Huber was an absolute pleasure to watch. I actually found great similarities between Huber’s Mrs. Higgins and the Dowager Countess of Grantham on Downton Abbey.”

“Also marvelous were the performers. Kathleen Huber was hilarious as the villainous Mrs. Meers, playing her as comically inept as Wile E. Coyote.”
– The Wichita Eagle

Stages St. Louis (MO)
​
“Kathleen Huber’s hilarious portrayal of the mayor’s grandiose wife is a marvel of self-dramatization. Her scene staging old-fashioned tableaux, in which she commands her troupe of prosperous housewives to ‘Take your bodies with you’ is dazzling in its absolute lack of self-awareness.”
– St. Louis Post-Dispatch
​
“Kathleen Huber also commits ‘show theft’ by giving us an unusual but quite hilarious interpretation of the haughty Eulalie Mackecknie Shinn.”
– Steve Allen – KFUO-FM
​
“Kathleen Huber, in her Stages debut, gives a fascinating and funny twist to the reading of the mayor’s wife.”
– Bob Boyd – KDHX-FM

​
“Gigi is being trained by her Aunt Alicia (Kathleen Huber), a Grande Dame in the highest French style, appalled when Gigi misidentifies a rare yellow diamond as a topaz (Quelle horreur!!!). In her tutelage of Gigi in the finer arts of womanhood, Huber rolls her R’s divinely.”
– The Wichita Eagle
​
“Kathleen as Mamita plays the opposite end of the dichotomy with class and stellar comic timing. The song ‘The Contract’ is hilarious.”
– CITY Magazine
​
“The wonderful Kathleen Huber, who always seems to mean more than she says, captures the European manner, not often portrayed on our stages, with grace and style.”
– TheatreScene
​
“Kathleen Huber, as Gigi's worldly-wise and loving grandmother, is the anchor for both the family and the play itself. Huber combines emotional warmth with flawless comic timing.”
