If it says that someone else is now playing her part, then yes, she left.

that's strange- she was there when I was there a month ago, and I haven't seen playbill articles suggesting that.

As per playbill: http://www.playbill.com/events/cast_list/1985

Apparently she did, and she was the last original cast member left in the show.

Perhaps Barnhart is just on a leave of absence?

And even if she did leave, she certainly isn't the only original cast member left in the company.

Carmen Ruby Floyd (u/s Gary Coleman), Aymee Garcia (u/s Mrs. T, Bear, Kate, and Lucy), and Matt Schreiber (currently playing Nicky and Trekkie but orignally the cover for those roles and Brian, Princeton and Rod) were all in the original cast and are all still with the show.

she is probably on a leave of absence...she's done that before.
