About Barb

Barbara has been a member of the Stratford Festival company since 1991. This 2015 season marks her 21st year, playing Frau Schmidt in Sound of Music and appearing in Carousel. She and husband Paul Shilton started this website in 2006 when they released their first album, Somebody New, available on itunes and CD Baby. These 9 years later, they are on the brink of releasing CD #2, as yet untitled. Somebody New, is still the featured soundtrack here but in a month or 2 there will be selections from #2. Many many thanks to all who supported Somebody New. We’re confident that you’ll enjoy our new one even more. Love Barb and Paul. February, 2015.
With Thanks
