“As the bard, Allie Babich showcases intense command of the character, a delightfully zestful blend of Mary Poppins and Moaning Myrtle.”
“Babich has terrific comedic timing and plays Shakespeare with a hint of Kate McKinnon.”

“The cast for this incarnation of the show—Allie Babich, Jenny Bennett, and Ginna Hoben—have taken what was originally a goofy-frat-guy thing and proven conclusively that goofy all-women productions rule.”
“In her Renaissance debut, Babich’s character seems like a female counterpart to Tom Hulce’s Mozart in the film, “Amadeus.” She is silly, giddy, restless and fanciful.”
“Equally delightful as the gushy Huldey is Allie Babich, who plays a virtuoso of frenetic energy, smeared lips, growing hate and some mordant schemes to get attention.”
“The ramrod-straight Sokolovic and puzzled Howard frequently serve as foils for the spectacular comic antics of Babich and Vitrano. Babich’s Huldey...[is] the needy friend in a sitcom turned up to 11.”
“Allie Babich sparkles as Austen’s heroine Emma Woodhouse…Seemingly channeling Julie Andrews by way of Kate Winslet, Babich handles the talky and seemingly relentless vocal requirements beautifully, so despite her character’s rather spoiled nature, we can’t resist her.”
-Bruce Bennett, St. George News
Maid Marian in Robin Hood at First Stage
"[As an] attractive and swashbuckling Maid Marian...the powerful and playful Babich fences with her fierce feminine mystique and extols confidence"
--Peggy Sue Dunigan, Broadway World
Violet in Violet at Skylight Music Theater
"Allie Babich brings powerful, earnest vocal deliveries to the title role, simmering with defensive anger while clinging to naïve hope for an impossible solution. Her personal confrontations and growth are both believable and quite moving."
Elaine Schmidt, Journal Sentinel
"...an ensemble of great fluidity pirouettes around the luminescent performance of Allie Babich as Violet..."
Dominique Paul North, Urban Milwaukee
Nellie Forbush in South Pacific at the Utah Shakespeare Festival
“Allie Babich seems tailor made to play Nellie. She is refreshingly brash and down-to-earth and bubbles over with personality, lighting up every scene she's in.”
Barbara M Bannon, Salt Lake Tribune
“…Allie Babich…radiates optimism…makes her character young and vulnerable but also strong and spirited, and she shines in her solos.”
--Rachel Brutsch, Deseret News
“…the exceptional Babich as an endearing Nellie. She has a bright, effortless soprano voice and exudes confidence with a rich texture in her acting.”
--Blair Howell, BroadwayWorld.com
Dottie in Victory Farm at Northern Sky Theater
"With her sweet soprano voice and fresh-scrubbed appearance, Allie Babich looks and sounds like the ingénue that Dottie is, and Babich has the good sense to recognize she therefore doesn't need to overdo the wide-eyed innocence that she naturally embodies."
--Mike Fischer, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
