早年
埃文斯生於吉爾福德,薩里郡,出生後即被遺棄。埃文斯在孤兒院的寄宿學校接受教育,先在特威克南的Fortescue House School,然後轉到了比斯利男校。他的表演天賦在幼時就被發掘,他總是在學校戲劇中扮演主角。埃文斯又進入Italia Conti Academy學習,接著在18歲的時候獲得了中央演講與戲劇學院的John Gielgud獎學金,便離開了孤兒院。
職業
Doctor in House埃文斯出演的首部電影是《Here we go around the mulberry bush》。在影片中他扮演了一個急於又難以擺脫處男生涯的小男生Jamie。他出演的第一部電視劇是1964年的肥皂《Crossroads》。他第一次在電視劇中出演主角是在著名英國情景喜劇《Doctor in the House》,來源於理察戈爾登的著名小說系列,曾經被拍攝成為電影。埃文斯在其中出演了熱心又容易受騙的麥可阿普頓。這個系列有著強大的幕後班底,包括John Cleese和Graham Chapman,還有Graeme Garden和Bill Oddie,Barry Cryer。Graham Chapman和Graeme Garden都曾經學習過醫藥學。
Doctor系列的續集《Doctor At Large》在1971年推出。埃文斯很喜歡和這一幫同事們一起合作,之後,他說過,這段時期是他人生中最美好的時光。
1975年,他主演了Stanley Long的喜劇《計程車司機的冒險》,但儘管電影成功了,他還是沒有出演續集。
1977年,他出演了《Mind Your Language》。他飾演的傑米里.布朗是一所夜校的英文老師,教一些外來移民英文。以現代的角度來看,因為大部分外國人的角色都相當的刻板化,這並不完全合理。但是這部電視劇卻相當的成功,不管是在英國還是海外,特別是那些電視劇中有的國家。
晚年
80年代後期,因他的娃娃臉使他很難再找到成熟的角色,儘管他已經40有餘。他人生中最後的一個角色是1993年,在The Mystery of Edwin Drood里飾演的Bazzard。90年代後期,他在萊斯特做起了計程車司機。1997年,他被發現死於自己的公寓,享年53歲。
警察是在去他家調查他被偷的汽車的時候發現他的屍體的。詹姆斯里德比特(18歲)之後被懷疑謀殺而逮捕。詹姆斯對警察說他曾經是埃文斯的一個朋友,而在案發當日他去他家是告訴他他不會再來拜訪他了。詹姆斯說埃文斯之後心情很不好,並且喝了半瓶威士忌。埃文斯的死因至今為得到定論,驗屍官認為埃文斯並非自殺,但詹姆斯也因為證據不足而釋放。

外界評論
.....Barry的一生短暫而又悲劇性,他是一位出色的演員。他不僅是一個孤兒,也是一個棄嬰。他總是很小心的檢驗著每一件事,因為他總是害怕再次被拋棄。---傑拉佛.戴維斯
.....Barry當年就是那個圓臉小男孩,我們劇組的每個女生都希望能擁有他.....我說的是做哥哥....
瑣事
1,Barry是一個雙性戀;
2,他終身未婚,終身也沒有任何親人,作為一個孤兒來到世界,臨死之前也沒有任何親友在身邊;
3,驗屍官在他的屍體裡驗出超正常標準4倍多的酒精濃度;
4,他的死因至今懸而未決。警方調查發現他臨死前曾經撥出一個電話給一位朋友,說他非常的不開心。但是驗屍報告表明他並非自殺,而是受到致命的攻擊身亡。
