Barbara Graham has enjoyed the many artistic opportunities offered by our community since she moved to Lago Vista in 2005. Performing with the Lago Vista Players, singing with the Hill Country Singers, serving as President of the Twilight Concert Series, singing with William Parcher and Joan Neely and the Twilight Jazz Ensemble, being director of the Lake Travis Music Theatre and the Rising Stars has been quite a ride! Last summer she was delighted to be back on the stage performing as Dolly Levi in Hello Dolly. Thank you Lord, this has been a real blessing.

Lisa received her BFA in Theatre with an emphasis in Acting and worked in the Chicago theatre scene for many years. She then pursued her Masters of Education there before moving to Texas. She moved to Lago Vista a year ago and is the current Kindergarten-5th grade Performing Arts teacher. She has much experience working with and directing children and adults alike. She recently performed as Mrs. Brill for Lake Travis Music Theatre in Mary Poppins and in Lago Vista Players production of “The Last Round Up of the Guacamole Queens” last fall. She is thrilled to have found a community so supportive of the performing arts and looks forward to many years of great theatre.

In addition to being the Assistant Director for the Lake Travis Music Theatre summer productions, Lisa is also President of the board for LV Players and enjoys roles in both organizations. Favorites roles include: Miss Hannigan in “Annie” (2013 & 2019), Bunny Watson in “Desk Set” and Crane Hammond in “Exit the Body”. Lisa also sings with the Hill Country Singers and Lakeside Christian Fellowship, and is a full-time employee of LVISD.​ Lisa has been Assistant Director for the Rising Stars program since its first production.
