Barnstormers Theatre

Mission Statement:

The Barnstormers’ mission statement is “to keep vital the value, spirit, and tradition of fine summer theatre in Tamworth and to provide a venue for and to promote varied cultural activities within the region.”

About Us:

The Barnstormers, located in the bucolic village of Tamworth, NH, is one of the longest-running professional summer theatres in the country.  The company was founded in 1931 by Francis Cleveland, the youngest son of President Grover Cleveland, Francis’s wife Alice and their friend Ed Goodnow – all of whom were involved with theatre on Broadway.  Over eighty years later, their legacy continues.  Today, The Barnstormers is one of three Equity theatres in New Hampshire and is the only theatre in the world that maintains the summer theatre tradition of eight plays in eight weeks.
