## Theatre

Before Broadway, Barlow originated the role of Alyssa Greene in *The Prom* during its pre-Broadway development and portrayed Cher in the Unauthorized Musical Parody of *Clueless*.<sup>[1](https://www.broadwayworld.com/people/Anna-Grace-Barlow/)</sup>

**Ragtime.** Barlow made her Broadway debut as Evelyn Nesbit, the model and chorus girl at the center of the Trial of the Century, in Lear deBessonet's revival of [Lynn Ahrens](https://www.edgepedia.org/lynn-ahrens), Stephen Flaherty, and [Terrence McNally](https://www.edgepedia.org/terrence-mcnally)'s *Ragtime* at Lincoln Center Theater's Vivian Beaumont Theater. The production officially opened on October 16, 2025, following a concert run at New York City Center the previous year, and Barlow joined a company including [Joshua Henry](https://www.edgepedia.org/joshua-henry), Caissie Levy, and Brandon Uranowitz.<sup>[3](https://playbill.com/article/anna-grace-barlow-is-completing-her-college-dream-trifecta-with-ragtime)</sup> She was new to the company, having not appeared in the City Center staging, where Stephanie Styles played Nesbit.<sup>[3](https://playbill.com/article/anna-grace-barlow-is-completing-her-college-dream-trifecta-with-ragtime)</sup> Playbill's performer page records her departure from the role on June 14, 2026.<sup>[6](https://playbill.com/person/anna-grace-barlow-performer)</sup>

In a 2025 Playbill interview, Barlow described Broadway as her first and biggest dream and said that appearing in *Ragtime* completed a bucket list she had set in college: a movie in theaters, a series regular role on television, and a Broadway show.<sup>[3](https://playbill.com/article/anna-grace-barlow-is-completing-her-college-dream-trifecta-with-ragtime)</sup>

## The Barlow sisters on Broadway

Barlow's younger sister Abigail Barlow, one of the creators of the Grammy-winning *The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical*, began performances as Katherine Howard in *SIX the Musical* on February 16, 2026, four months after Anna Grace opened *Ragtime*. Both sisters were making their Broadway debuts in the same season, and both portrayed real-life women famous for their beauty, in costumes that happened to share a black-and-pink color scheme.<sup>[7](https://playbill.com/article/sisters-abigail-barlow-and-anna-grace-barlow-are-both-on-broadway-dont-worry-theyre-not-competitive)</sup>

## Training and early life

Barlow grew up in the [Birmingham, Alabama](https://www.edgepedia.org/birmingham-alabama), area and trained in the youth programs at Red Mountain Theatre Company, where director Keith Cromwell was a formative mentor who brought Broadway performers and industry professionals to Alabama to teach.<sup>[3](https://playbill.com/article/anna-grace-barlow-is-completing-her-college-dream-trifecta-with-ragtime)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[8](https://www.sensacine.com.mx/actores/actor-740327/)</sup> She attended [Pace University](https://www.edgepedia.org/pace-university)'s musical theater program for one year before visiting Los Angeles and staying for about a decade, training there in on-camera scene study, cold reading, and private audition coaching.<sup>[3](https://playbill.com/article/anna-grace-barlow-is-completing-her-college-dream-trifecta-with-ragtime)</sup> She is a 2012 graduate of Mountain Brook High School.<sup>[2](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2953809/)</sup>

Sources disagree on her birthplace: IMDb and SensaCine give [Jackson, Mississippi](https://www.edgepedia.org/jackson-mississippi), while Famous Birthdays and Playbill describe her as born in or native to Alabama.<sup>[2](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2953809/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[8](https://www.sensacine.com.mx/actores/actor-740327/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[4](https://www.famousbirthdays.com/people/anna-barlow.html)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[3](https://playbill.com/article/anna-grace-barlow-is-completing-her-college-dream-trifecta-with-ragtime)</sup>
