About Barbara

Barbara was born for the stage and there's nowhere she would rather be! She dances, plays a mean kazoo and just loves a joke, but what Barbara loves most of all is to SING!

Barb's joy is infectious! Soon we're up and dancing and everybody knows exactly what it means when she sings: ‘Rinka datink a tink, Sugar dabop a day'.

Review

It takes a big voice…and plenty of confidence to deliver (Bessie Smith’s)…songs in a manner that can do justice to the originals as well as impress an audience. Brisbane’s Barbara Fordham has both the ability to do all that and the charisma to make them her own.
