Professional Summer Theatre located in the scenic village of Tamworth, NH, The Barnstormers is one of the longest-running professional summer theatres in the United States. To attend The Barnstormers is to experience the magic of our illustrious history, our dedication to creating superior quality productions, and the greatest entertainment a summer’s afternoon or evening can bring.
Each summer, over 50 professional actors from around the country converge on The Barnstormers stage much to the delight of our audiences from near and far. Often compared to the likes of Broadway, the quality of our performers, directors, designers, and technicians glitters brightly night after night.
The Barnstormers was founded in 1931 by Francis and Alice Cleveland and Ed Goodnow. Francis, the youngest child of President Grover Cleveland, was pursuing a career on Broadway, when The Barnstormers made its debut in Tamworth. The troupe got its name from precisely what they did: after opening Monday night in Tamworth, they’d hit the road and tour rural towns, “barnstorming” their way throughout Northern New England.
Today, The Barnstormers makes its home in the center of the bustling town of Tamworth. Across the street and just steps away are the Tamworth Distilling, the Tamworth History Center, and the Remick Farm Museum.
