Barter postpones season start
Published 7:44 am Monday, March 23, 2020
Barter Theatre will postpone the opening of Macbeth, Driving Miss Daisy, and Peter Pan which were originally scheduled for March 26, April 2 and April 7, respectively. This decision is in response to Governor Northam’s ban on large gatherings, and to ensure the safety of Barter’s staff, volunteers and patrons.
Barter is in the process of filming these productions for possible streaming to patrons and is working to finalize the technical and contractual requirements necessary to proceed with the distribution. Barter continues to offer its flexible and free exchange policy for all of its shows and hopes that patrons will show their support for the company by continuing to purchase tickets to productions that are scheduled for later this year.
