BWW Reviews: ALWAYS...PATSY CLINE, A Triumph for Mandy Barnett at The Ryman Auditorium
by Jeffrey Ellis
- Jul 13, 2011
When Mandy Barnett takes to the stage of Nashville's revered Ryman Auditorium for a performance of Ted Swindley's 'musical play,' Always...Patsy Cline, she doesn't so much create a characterization of the legendary country superstar. Rather, she channels her. When Barnett sets foot on that stage, she is Patsy Cline so completely mesmerizing and on-point is her portrayal. Clearly, if anyone was ever born to play Patsy, it's Mandy Barnett, who seemingly has been destined to play Patsy Cline since birth.
