The Barter Theatre on Wednesday announced the homecoming the community has been waiting on.
For the first time since 2019, Barter will re-open its doors at Gilliam Stage for the fall production of Frankenstein, which will show Sept. 30 through Halloween night, Oct. 31.
Barter Theatre will also be continuing to perform at the Moonlite Drive-In this fall. Rockin’ at the Moonlite, a musical review featuring Barter actors singing the roots of rock through today, will be showing from Sept. 24 through Oct. 23.
Barter Theatre is taking precautions based on both Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and governmental guidelines, along with recommendations from their Medical Advisory Board. In an audience survey conducted by the theatre, 73.9 percent of participants indicated that they feel safe and comfortable enough to attend indoor performances again.
Producing Artistic Director Katy Brown says that “safety is a top concern” and extends her thanks to everyone in the community who has been following Barter’s story over the past year.
“Without them, none of this would be possible,” Brown asserted, “We’re taking safety very seriously, and we’re excited to be back home in the theater we know and love, serving this community as we always have.”
Tickets are available for the homecoming season starting Aug. 10. Visit www.bartertheatre.com for more.
