Madeline Barr is a graduate of NYU Tisch’s Experimental Theatre Wing. She has been acting for over twenty years - gaining her primary training as a theatre student at Denver School of the Arts. For the last ten years Madeline has committed herself to being a full-rounded theatre artist, not only acting but writing, directing, producing, and teaching as well. Madeline thrives in the developmental process, and has found much of her success in devising theatre and workshopping new work. 

Some of her most proud accomplishments have been the development of her play “Three”, a text collage examining trios of sisters throughout time from King Lear’s daughters, Macbeth’s witches, Chekov’s three sisters, to Kourtney, Khloe, and Kim. Three went on to win a grant from the NY Society Library and was developed alongside her longtime collaborators Allison Taaffe and Julia Blauvelt as well as Tony Award winner Stephen Spinella and was performed at Dixon Place, The Culture LAB, and NYU. She also helped to devise a touring production of “Night Witches, a new play about the first all-female fighter pilot troupe to fight in combat. She also helped to devise and acted in Richard Schechner’s latest piece, “Imagining ‘O’”. Madeline has had two ten minute plays produced by LAByrinth Theatre Company and one by The Tank. She has workshopped three of her full length plays with The Farm Theatre. She is currently developing a short film, a one woman show, and a new full length play. She is a proud member of LAByrinth Theatre Company.
