“Talented actor, singer and dancer… hilarious and flawless”
“In the lead role of June was Katie Clark. I have had the opportunity to review her several times. This particular genre seems to be where Katie belongs. A talented actor, singer and dancer, musical comedy is most definitely where Katie really shines. Her adaption from June, to Juny were seamless. Her depiction of Eva Perone was hilarious and flawless, as she channeled Patti LuPone, who created the spectacular characterization as the former First Lady of Argentina. This was my favorite performance by Katie. I hope she continues to grow within this genre.”

“Easily embodies each style without ever feeling forced”
“As for the leads, they are all fantastic. Katie Clark plays June, the woman who can't pay her rent, and she easily embodies each style without ever feeling forced.”
-Sarah Chantal Parro
“A hoot… never funnier”
“Clark is a hoot in the many versions of June, but never funnier than as Junita in Lloyd Webber's Aspects of Junita.”
-Nancy Grossman
“Hearing Katie sing… new spice to the already delicious dish”
“I can say that hearing Katie sing and enjoying her send-up of Patti Lupone added a new spice to the already delicious dish that the cast members have been serving up to the audience in each performance.”
-Dr. Al Chase
“Rips the artifice… one of the best parodies”
“What a cast to pull this off! Katie Clark, whose crazy, baby voice rips the artifice right out of Sweeney Todd… In one of the best parodies (of both character and song) Johanna (renamed ‘Jeune’) is bonkers from the get-go, delivering a wide-eyed, florid ‘I Have Little Birds.’
...You’ll be wowed by the versatility of the performers, who can match anything thrown at them in say, Company. Sondheim’s ‘Not Getting Married Today’ is even, dare I say, funnier in parody because it’s a joke sitting on top of a joke.”
-Beverly Creasey
“Glorious voice… delivers her one liners perfectly”
“The young blonde heroine in each of the segments is excellently played by Katie Clark as June. Katie has a glorious voice which she displays in "I Don't Love You", the R&H spoof...Katie not only knocks off your socks with her voice but delivers her one liners perfectly.”
“Moments steal the show… triple threat has mastered the art”
“Some of Clark’s moments steal the show — especially a gag where she appears wearing a bustier of kitchen utensils — and it’s clear this triple threat has mastered the art of being a soubrette.”
“A hoot… brassy voice that shines”
“Clark is also a hoot, a boisterous blonde space shot with a brassy voice that shines in ‘A Bushel and a Peck.’”
“Brassy pipes and comic delivery… show stoppers”
“Miss Adelaide (Katie Clark) is perfectly cast as the headliner at the Hot Box Nightclub, a favorite gangster hangout. Clark and McGlynn are matched ideally as the couple you love to love. Clark’s brassy pipes and comic delivery of ‘Adelaide’s Lament’ and ‘Take Back Your Mink’ done with the Hot Box Girls are show stoppers.”
“Topnotch performance… considerable comedic and dance skills”
“Katie Clark gives a topnotch performance as the self-described hick from Little Rock, Arkansas ... Her considerable comedic and dance skills are on display in ‘Honey Bun’ with Luther Billis, ... and Clark shows her serious side in the dramatic finales of both acts.”
“Spunky, take charge woman”
“Katie Clark makes Ensign Forbush a spunky, take charge woman who is taken aback by her attraction to Peter S. Adams’ charming Frenchman.”
“One of the highlights of the show… bursting with spunk and sassiness”
“One of the highlights of the show, as it should be, is the wonderful number ‘I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair,’ ...Clark is bursting with spunk and sassiness as she sings it and literally washes her hair in a semi-private outdoor shower stall.”
“Very believable… impressive”
“Katie Clark as Nellie is very believable as a naive refugee from ‘Small Rock’ Arkansas, head over heels in love with the debonair French plantation owner, Emile de Becque ... equally impressive was Ms. Clark’s version of the ever-popular ‘I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair.’
“Standout… a poignant edge of self-awareness”
“Cast standouts include... Katie Clark as April, a stewardess whom Bobby is dating. Recently seen as Morgan Le Fey in New Repertory Theatre’s Camelot, Clark brings a poignant edge of self-awareness to April, a character sometimes played solely as a ditz.”
“Just funny… owns her character’s dimness”
“Although Moonbox’s Company is a true ensemble piece, with all company members giving rounded performances, a few shine even brighter...Clark’s April is just funny, from the looks of tortured disdain she shoots Bobby to the way she owns her character’s dimness.”
“Tugs the heartstrings”
“During an extended scene with April (‘Poor Baby,’ ‘Barcelona’), he travels an arc from bar to bedroom to uh-oh. Clark tugs the heartstrings when her not-too-bright character realizes that her feelings for Bobby are not reciprocal...”
“Easily the most dynamic… hilarious and heartbreaking”
“The best work came from the girlfriends... Easily the most dynamic was Katie Clark’s April, but she also had the most interesting character with which to work: a ditsy flight attendant who wants something more, namely, a man. Her “Barcelona” was both hilarious and heartbreaking...”
“Winning delivery… an especially memorable character”
“Katie Clark and Dennis Setteducatti play Pretty Lady’s writers, Maggie Jones and Bert Barry, with an easy-going, good-natured banter, and Clark’s winning delivery of Maggie’s zinging one-liners makes hers an especially memorable character.”
“Joy and wild abandon… strong vocals to match”
“...and Katie Clark (Cassie) who danced her solo with joy and wild abandon as expected, but surprised with strong vocals to match.”
“Too good a dancer… singing voice is actually far better than Cassie requires”
"Clark does an excellent job in showing how Cassie first sticks out (she’s just too good a dancer) and then reins in her talent to fit into the unison chorus dancing during ‘One’ and her singing voice is actually far better than the part of Cassie even requires."
