Shrek was awesome! All the actors and actresses did a wonderful job! This makes the 3rd time I've been to Barter and have not been disappointed with either time. I do wish Janice Joplin would come back.
Never saw a bad show. Always a treat to be entertained here!
The plays were wonderful and the acting was great. Our family loved it.
Such very, very good theater in such a remote location!
This place had a great atmosphere and the play was top notch! Loved it!
We saw Footloose the Musical. It was a great show and talented performers! We had great seats (small theater) and the music and sound equipment they used was fantastic. Highly recommend.
Awesome performances by extremely talented performers. Saw Singing In the Rain and do not believe it could have been any better on Broadway.
Attended Kiss Me Kate last night. Very funny, great comic timing. Laughs abound. The dancing was splendid as was the singing. My husband is not a fan of musicals and he thoroughly enjoyed this one. I would recommend to all. Great job.
Great productions, actors, and facilities! A White Christmas was awesome!
Players did a wonderful job. Nice acoustics, great maintenance.
Great shows. Extremely talented performers who shine in varying roles from show to show. How someone can go from playing Robert in Bridges of Madison County to playing Donkey in Shrek, and killing it in both roles, is absolutely amazing. Beautiful venues. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. A superb ...
Barter is very fun. I have always enjoyed seeing plays and musical groups. The stage is transformed into magical scenes. The Hunch Back of Notre Dame was amazing when I saw it, so was Tarzan. I didn't really enjoy Sherlock Holmes and the American problem, but plays are interpreted different by each ...
Love the plays they perform on stage. The first day of a new production there is a limited number of seats you can get at a discount, you have to be there when the box office first opens.
I enjoy the intimate size of the theatre. Usually, some of the actors talk to the public after the show. No Guarantee, however.
This theater is great. We went to see Elf: The Musical and it was amazing. The staff was very friendly and the play was great. We will definitely be returning in the future.
Always great shows. Very professional and great entertainment!
No bad seats! Very talented performers! Worth our 2+ hour drive.
I always love what I see at Barter. Whether it's the main stage, or a more laid back but equally heartfelt performance at stage two, I am always impressed.
This is a wonderful little theater that has great shows we saw a Footloose and I do not think there is a bad seat in the whole place because it is so small everybody is friendly great location to poke around the town even before or after you visit the show
Never seen a bad show! Love coming to their one off performance and some of their smaller shows at barter 2! Great way to spend a date night
Theater that will blow your mind! Student rush tickets are available on the day of the show for just $18 per ticket.
Simply a must see experience! It's so worth the drive. Every performance, be it on the main stage or the 2nd stage, they are phenomenal! Everyone is so polite and gracious from the parking attendant, will call to the ushers. Thank you for this wonderful experience!
Always a first class performance and fabulous experience! Several years ago, we started a new tradition of going to the Barter Theatre on Christmas Eve. This is part of my gifts to my family. We ALL look forward to it every year and they NEVER disappoint! Incredible performances, fabulous atmosphe...
Worth trying at least once, you never know quite how the show will go.
Outstanding!!! Thoroughly enjoyed "White Christmas"; first timer at the Barter but not the last. Being new in the area, meet some locals and had great conversation with them.
Singing in the rain was fabulous. Our whole stay in Abingdon was amazing. The cast , the orchestra , all so wonderful. Great job Barter.
Enjoyed the musical. Helpful staff. Great location.
I've been attending plays at the Barter for twenty years, literally almost my entire life, and I'll continue to do so as long as it exists. The casts are almost always wonderful, with a wide variety of show types, and the very neat and innovative Stage II, where the plays happen literally feet in fr...
We were at Stage II, great place to see a play. Cute little cafe and gift shop
Amazing talent all around - on stage and "back stage"! It is evident that they love what they do.
Production of White Christmas was great. Was shocked to see they served wine. Enjoyed the wine and show.
Awesome place to see a show. Friendly staff and great atmosphere
Superb! There s nothing like it in the Mountain South!
Barter Theatre is a shining gem in our quirky, artsy town. There s a reason that world renowned artists make their home in our Appalachian town-and it started back in 1933 with the founding of Barter Theatre. These are not community plays-we are talking Broadway quality but with accessibility, affor...
Wonderful ! I recommend it to anyone who loves a live performance !
I love going to the Barter Theater! Their plays are superb and the actors too!
The acting is first rate, and the setting is beautiful. Professional theater for less than half of what you would pay in a big city, and some of the actors from here have gone on to the big time. The world premiere of "Madame Buttermilk" was particularly funny!
Outstanding Theater. Very well maintained and the staff assists keeping it that way. The gift shop is well appointed and well organized. The wine bar has a nice selection of good wine. Soft drinks and bottles of water are also available. The performers are outstanding. Will attend again.
Just saw, Wait Until Dark love the show, love the theater, always a great place to go, everyone is friendly I love this place
Loved the Sherlock Holmes performance yesterday! Great acting and awesome transitions
If you live local and have never experienced the Barter you have done yourself a disservice!
I couldn't say enough nice things about the Barter!
Great atmosphere in a very intimate setting. Awesome time seeing Steel Magnolias!
Excellent production of "Steel Magnolias!". Quality!!!!
Came to see Penny and Sparrow. The staff were all smiles and ready to serve. The sound is great for music. The venue is the perfect size as there is not a bad seat in the building! Parking is easy to navigate and the area is rich in history.
Beautiful theater in the adorable town of Abingdon. We saw White Christmas and it was fabulous!
Great shows, across from Martha Washington Inn. Great antiques shopping downtown. One of my favorite places.
I have never had a bad experience at the Barter. I highly recommend for anyone, young or old.
This is a unique and timeless theater treasure for the young and old! Each show is sure to please.
We went to see Madame Butterfly. We live musicals and this was a good one.
